二十弐三度尓及ばゞ下抜き別わらだへ移春べし其仕やうは
蚕を鳥の羽を以て押集め指ひを以とり一稾だの蚕二た
わらだ尓布きふや春也本の稾だ尓残る蚕は／若（わか）き娘尓拾春
べし眠尓向ふ日より段々尓桑を細か尓切薄く度々掛
てよし八宣尓阿る処は此事天気寒暖尓随て遅速
阿連共凡三十四五度尓して桑留尓成るもの也蚕は一起
乃手入肝要也恙那く起連は始終難なきもの那り
眠の内桑厚掛蚕末尓至りて病を生ずる也
△志ゞの初眠食する蚕なく起て桑を喰ふ蚕十歩一も
あらば桑をとゝむる事一日也桑をとめざれば先尓起し
蚕は食／眠蚕（よとみこ）は食せず蚕揃はざる也其夜桑を細か尓
切薄くかけ先尓起し蚕飢ざら志む是を婦り桑といふ
舩の起まて同じ也桑留めの日夜火を焚炭を用ひ蚕
屋暖尓春べし寒けれは起がたし袷を着てか滅を試
現代語訳
二十二、三度に及べば下抜きして別の藁に移すべし。その仕様は蚕を鳥の羽を以て押し集め、指で以て取り、一つの藁の蚕に対して二つの藁に布き広げるなり。元の藁に残る蚕は若き娘に拾わせるべし。眠に向かう日より段々に桑を細かに切り、薄く度々かけてよし。八回に当たる処は、この事天気寒暖に随って遅速あれども、凡そ三十四、五度にして桑留めになるものなり。蚕は一起の手入れ肝要なり。恙なく起これば始終難なきものなり。
眠の内に桑厚くかけ、蚕末に至りて病を生ずるなり。
△四回目の初眠で食する蚕なく起きて桑を喰う蚕十分の一もあらば、桑を止むること一日なり。桑を止めざれば先に起こした蚕は食するが、眠蚕は食せず、蚕揃わざるなり。その夜桑を細かに切り薄くかけ、先に起こした蚕飢えざらしむ。是を覆り桑という。全ての起きまで同じなり。桑留めの日夜火を焚き炭を用い、蚕屋暖にすべし。寒ければ起きがたし。袷を着てか蚕を試し
英語訳
When it reaches twenty-two to twenty-three times, perform bottom removal and transfer to different straw mats. The method is to gather the silkworms using bird feathers, pick them up with fingers, and spread the silkworms from one straw mat onto two straw mats. Have young girls pick up the silkworms remaining in the original straw. From the day approaching molting, gradually cut the mulberry finely and apply it thinly and frequently. At the eighth application, though this timing varies according to weather temperature, it generally takes about thirty-four to thirty-five times to reach the mulberry stopping point. The care during the first molting is crucial. If they molt without incident, there will be no difficulties throughout.
Applying mulberry thickly during molting will cause disease when the silkworms reach maturity.
△In the fourth initial molting, if even one-tenth of the silkworms wake up and eat mulberry while no silkworms are eating, stop the mulberry for one day. If you do not stop the mulberry, the silkworms that woke up first will eat, but the sleeping silkworms will not eat, and the silkworms will not be uniform. That night, cut the mulberry finely, apply it thinly, and prevent the silkworms that woke up first from starving. This is called "covering mulberry." The same applies until all wake up. On the day of mulberry stopping, light fires day and night, use charcoal, and keep the silkworm house warm. If it is cold, they will have difficulty waking up. Wear lined garments and test the silkworms
