現代語訳
（前頁より続く）まだ何の御指示もないため、本日仁右衛門殿へ伺いに参上したところ、役人衆が「今も道を作っているのか」とおっしゃったので、「今は止めております」と申し上げると、「それならば申し分はない。こちらから不要と申し付けた。重ねて造るようであれば訴えを申し上げる」とおっしゃったとのことで、その旨届け出があった。
閏八月十五日
一、神主辞退に伴う次第転任（順次転任）の件を、公武（朝廷・幕府）へ申し上げるべきかどうかについて、この間何かと延引となっていたため、明日申し上げることとし、その場で口上書が作成された。
お願い申し上げる口上
一、今年二月に富野三位（神主）が神主職を辞退する旨、書付をもって申し上げたところ、安藤駿河守殿より「今しばらく延引せよ」とのお達しがあり、今日まで勤めてまいりました。社例（神社の慣例）のとおり、貴布祢（神社）の祝（はふり）から順次転任すべき旨お達しがあったところ、正祝・林三位は譜代の職（世襲の職）であるため転任はしないと申して、（転任が）滞っております。次第転任については、元禄十五年に権祝が欠員になった際に訴訟に及び、段々とご吟味の上、十月二十一日に駿河守殿において御条目の表（規定の文書）に基づき、次第転任すべき旨がお達しになり、その後、平松中納言様がご伝奏（朝廷への取次役）であった際に、林宮内権大輔が貴布祢の宜（かんなぎ）の職を（朝廷に）申し上げ、次第転任が行われました。この度もよどみなく正祝が転任できますよう、お命じいただければ、ありがたく存じます。以上。

英語訳
(Continued from previous page) Since no instructions had yet been issued, [the village headman Yatarō] went to inquire of Jinuemon-dono today. The officials replied, "Are you still constructing the road?" He answered, "We have stopped for now," to which they responded, "In that case, there is no objection. We have ordered that it is unnecessary. If it is built again, we will file a complaint." This was duly reported.
Intercalary Eighth Month, 15th Day
One matter: Regarding whether the sequential transfer of posts (jidai ten'nin) following the resignation of the head shrine priest should be reported to both the Imperial Court and the Shogunate — as this matter had been repeatedly delayed for various reasons, it was decided to make the report the following day, and accordingly a written petition was composed on the spot.
Oral Petition Humbly Submitted
One: In the second month of this year, we submitted a written notice that Tomino Sanmi (the head shrine priest) wished to resign from the position of head shrine priest. In response, Andō Suruga-no-kami-dono instructed us to delay the matter a little longer, and he has continued to serve until now. We were instructed that, in accordance with the shrine's established precedent, the sequential transfer of posts should proceed from the Kibune Shrine's hafuri (officiating priest). However, the Sei-hafuri (chief officiating priest) Hayashi Sanmi claims that his position is hereditary (fudai) and therefore not subject to transfer, causing the matter to stall. Regarding the sequential transfer system, when the position of Gon-hafuri (provisional officiating priest) fell vacant in the fifteenth year of Genroku [1702], a lawsuit was filed and after extensive deliberation, on the twenty-first day of the tenth month, it was decreed by Suruga-no-kami-dono, based on the articles of regulation, that the sequential transfer should be carried out. Thereafter, during the time when Lord Hiramatsu Chūnagon served as Tendō (the Court's liaison), Hayashi Kunai Gonno-Taifu reported the position of Kibune Nigi (shrine official) to the Court, and the sequential transfer was duly executed. We humbly request that you issue the order for the Sei-hafuri to be transferred without delay this time as well. Respectfully submitted.
