後ニ聞候ヘハ左近衛門源之丞二人下ル由也
今日神主亭ニ而御服上臈衆五人へ小袖ノ代
三百文 千早之代弐百文 又今度裁ハスレノ
切々有支配而被渡候也「寛永ニハ長持ニ入五
人之奉行封ヲ付置夜ノ間ニ被盗色々穿鑿
アリ然トモ中悪敷故被取事今度五人奉行へ不渡

永五年ニハ神主用久也此時長持ニ入ル絹ノ切々ハ
封ヲ付被置候ヲ中間ノ申分ニ付封ヲ解而一夜ニ
悉用久被取候随分之ワヤク盗人ナレトモ中悪
故是程之事候又公事者不成色々申分あれt
現代語訳
各家々の祓(はらえ)の表紙として使用できるようにしてはどうかとの評議があった。
本宮の御神服については、以前より支配(分配)の慣例があったことが見受けられる。
十三日 向いの市郎衛門が死去、五十四歳とのことである。
【行間注記】今日、貴布祢の谷の者二人が江戸へ出発したとのことで、無用のことであるとの風聞あり。後に聞いたところによれば、左近衛門・源之丞の二人が下ったとのことである。
今日、神主の邸宅において、御服の上臈衆(じょうろうしゅう)五人へ、小袖の代として三百文、千早(ちはや)の代として二百文が渡された。また今度の裁断端切れなどを支配(分配)して渡された。
「寛永には(御神服を)長持に入れて五人の奉行が封を付けて置いたところ、夜の間に盗まれ、色々と詮索があった。しかしながら、(犯人と)中が悪かったゆえに盗まれたことで、今度は五人の奉行へ渡さなかった事は聞き申さなかった。(この件は)二十二日に又(記載が)あり、二十二日の箇所にあり。」
以上の分を書き入れた。
さて、頭別当・歌役・所司・目代は、(上臈衆の)番に替わって奉行に呼ばれ、端切れの支配(分配)もされず、これはいかなることか。寛永五年には神主は用久であった。この時、長持に入れた絹の端切れは封を付けて置かれていたが、中間(ちゅうげん)の申し立てによって封を解かれ、一夜のうちにことごとく用久が盗み取った。相当な悪事を働いた盗人であるが、(犯人と)仲が悪かったために、これほどの事(が明るみに出た)。また、訴訟沙汰にもならず、色々と申し開きはあったが……
英語訳
There was a deliberation as to whether it would be appropriate to use the remnants as covers for the harae (purification ritual) documents of each household.
Regarding the sacred robes (go-shinpuku) of the Main Shrine, it appears that there had previously been an established custom for their distribution.
13th: The neighbor Ichirō'emon passed away, reportedly at the age of fifty-four.
[Interlinear note]: Today it was rumored that two men from the Kibune valley had set out for Edo — said to be a needless matter. Later it was heard that the two who went down were Sakon'emon and Gen'nojō.
Today, at the Kannushi's residence, the five senior attendants (jōrō-shū) of the sacred robes received three hundred mon as payment in lieu of a kosode (short-sleeved kimono), and two hundred mon in lieu of a chihaya (a type of ceremonial garment). Furthermore, the cut fabric remnants (hashire no kiregire) from this occasion were distributed and handed over to them.
[Inserted note]: "In the Kan'ei era, [the sacred robes] were placed in a nagamochi (long chest) and sealed with the stamps of five bugyō (overseers); however, they were stolen during the night, and various investigations were conducted. Nevertheless, because [the investigator] was on bad terms with [the suspect], the matter of the theft was concluded, and we did not hear that [the items] were not handed over to the five bugyō this time around. There is a further entry on the 22nd — see the section for the 22nd."
The above was inserted as a note.
Now, the tō-bettō (head administrator), uta-yaku (poetry officer), shoshi (administrator), and mokudai (deputy) were called to the bugyō instead of taking their turn among the attendants, and were not even given a share of the fabric remnants — what is this about? In the Kan'ei 5th year, the Kannushi was Yōkyū. At that time, the cut silk pieces placed in the nagamochi had been sealed, but upon the petition of the chūgen (low-ranking servant), the seal was broken, and in a single night Yōkyū stole everything. He was quite the accomplished thief, but because [those involved] were on bad terms with him, matters came to this pass. Furthermore, no lawsuit came of it, and though various explanations were offered...
