現代語訳
右の写しは代理の松平紀伊守殿にも差し遣わした。
一、御礼のため西丸に登城し、雁の間にて御奏者番鳥羽丹後守に謁見した。
一、年寄衆・若年寄衆に御礼のため回った。もっとも玄関で申し置いた。
但し、先年は腹中（忌中）の老中・若年寄には回礼しなかったということだが、近年御奉書にも清めの義を申してこないので、腹穢れの衆が済まないまま回礼する心得であった。その上、この節は老中・若年寄の内で差し合いのある衆もいないので、残らず回礼した。
一、帰宅は九つ半時過ぎ
一、昨夕、年寄衆連名の奉書が御用番伊豆守殿より到来。今日登城する趣で、日光二十日の御名代を仰せ付けられた段を当番の同席中に直ちに回状。太田摂津守、安藤長門殿に手紙を遣わし、その外病気・幼少・在邑の衆には下回状を差し出した。
一、日光御名代を仰せ付けられたので、先例の通り日光御門主その外日光奉行、上野在番役者衆、出家中東漸院並びに日光道中中田・房川御関所支配御代官に使者をもって知らせ方々頼み遣わした。
一、御用番松平伊豆守殿に留守居の者が呼ばれ、御名代を仰せ付けられたので外桜田御門番を御免になった旨を御書付をもって仰せ渡された。これにより御礼のため伊豆守殿にのみ直接勤めた。

英語訳
A copy of the above was also sent to deputy Matsudaira Kii-no-kami.
1. For expressing gratitude, I attended Nishinomaru castle and had an audience with Sōshaban Toba Tango-no-kami in the Kari-no-ma.
1. I made courtesy visits to the rōjū and wakadoshiyori to express gratitude, properly announcing myself at their entrance halls.
However, in previous years courtesy visits were not made to rōjū and wakadoshiyori who were in mourning, but in recent years no mention of purification has been made in official letters, so the understanding was to make courtesy visits even to those in ritual impurity without resolution. Moreover, at this time there were no conflicts among the rōjū and wakadoshiyori, so I made visits to all of them without exception.
1. Returned home after half past the ninth hour.
1. Yesterday evening, an official letter signed jointly by the rōjū arrived from Lord Izu-no-kami, the duty officer. Regarding attending the castle today, the appointment as Nikkō representative for the 20th was immediately circulated to colleagues on duty. Letters were sent to Ōta Settsu-no-kami and Andō Nagato-no-kami, and circular notices were sent out to others who were ill, young, or in their domains.
1. Having been appointed as Nikkō representative, following precedent, messengers were sent to inform and request assistance from the Nikkō gate master and other Nikkō magistrates, Kōzuke duty officers, monks of Tōzen-in, and the deputy governors in charge of Nakata and Fusagawa checkpoints along the Nikkō road.
1. The duty officer Matsudaira Izu-no-kami summoned my deputy and officially announced through a written document that I was exempted from Sotosukurada gate guard duty due to my appointment as representative. Accordingly, I personally paid respects only to Lord Izu-no-kami.
