英語訳
The Ministry of Treasury erected a seven-jō-high curtain as the imperial residence. The buildings of various government offices and houses in the eastern and
western capitals frequently collapsed, with many people crushed to death, and some who lost consciousness and died suddenly.
At the hour of the Boar, there were also three more tremors. On the same day, there were great earthquakes in all provinces of the five home provinces and seven circuits,
with many government buildings suffering damage. (The rest is omitted)
8th month, 1st day (mizunoe-tora), day and night: Two earthquakes occurred. 2nd day (mizunoto-u): Earthquake
occurred three times. 4th day (kinoto-mi): Earthquake occurred five times.
5th day (hinoe-uma), daytime: Earthquake occurred five times. At night there was a great earthquake, and the people of the capital came out
from their houses to live in the streets. 6th day (hinoto-hitsuji): The Shakuten ceremony was suspended. On the 30th day of last month, Hata no Senmoto, leader of the Bureau of Carpentry, and the Inspector of the Construction Office died from shock and loss of consciousness due to
earthquake terror, so the ritual officers were affected by this defilement.
Humbly noting: After this there were continuous earthquakes, but they are omitted here.
18th day (tsuchinoto-hitsuji): One hundred virtuous and renowned monks were invited to both Shishin-den and Daigoku-den
halls to recite the Daihanyakyō (Great Perfection of Wisdom Sutra) for a period of three days to ward off disasters and pray for good harvests.
