現代語訳
供回りの侍たちは、御老中方の屋敷を一軒空けて、逗留中に配置された。
一、中納言（秀康）が死去した後、家督相続の件について、嫡子の三河守忠直に仰せ付けられた。しかし、事情があって豊後国へ配流された。この時、忠直の嫡子である古越後守光長は仙千代と申していた。忠直のこの事情により、古越後守の家督は仰せ付けられず、中納言の遺跡は伊予守忠昌に仰せ付けられた。忠昌は忠直の弟で、中納言の次男である。伊予守には懇切な上意があり、福井の城をそのまま預け、一門以外の者は「殿」の文字を用いてよい旨を仰せ出された。御内書を頂戴する際には、御書判で下し置かれた。伊予守が参府する際には、品川まで上使が遣わされ、到着するとすぐに登城し、御目見を仰せ付けられた。登城の際には総下座を仰せ付けられた。
一、正保二年酉八月、伊予守が死去し、嫡子の古越前守光通（万千代丸と申していた）が十歳で家督を仰せ付けられた。登城する際には直に御座の間へ召され、御側に置かれた。同年の暮れに侍従に任じられ、慶安元年子十二月二十一日、御黒書院において元服し、少将兼越前守に任じられる旨を仰せ付けられた。

The attendant samurai were accommodated in one of the residences of the Senior Councilors (rōjū) that had been made available during their stay.
1. After the death of Chūnagon (Hideyasu), the matter of succession was entrusted to his eldest son, Mikawa-no-kami Tadanao. However, due to certain circumstances, he was exiled to Bungo Province. At this time, Tadanao's eldest son, the former Echigo-no-kami Mitsunaga, was called Senchidai. Due to Tadanao's circumstances, the former Echigo-no-kami was not granted succession, and Chūnagon's inheritance was entrusted to Iyo-no-kami Tadamasa. Tadamasa was Tadanao's younger brother and Chūnagon's second son. There were kind instructions from above regarding Iyo-no-kami, and Fukui Castle was entrusted to him as it was. It was proclaimed that those outside the family line could use the character "tono" (lord). When receiving the shogunal letter, it was bestowed with the shogunal seal. When Iyo-no-kami came to Edo, an envoy was sent as far as Shinagawa, and upon arrival, he immediately went to the castle for an audience with the shogun. During castle visits, he was granted the privilege of sitting in the lower seat area.
1. In the 8th month of Shōhō 2 (1645), Iyo-no-kami died, and his eldest son, the former Echizen-no-kami Mitsumichi (called Manchidai-maru), inherited the headship at age ten. When visiting the castle, he was summoned directly to the audience chamber and kept close to the shogun's side. At the end of the same year, he was appointed as Jijū (Chamberlain), and on the 21st day of the 12th month of Keian 1 (1648), he came of age at the Black Study (Kurosho-in) and was appointed as Shōshō (Minor Captain) concurrently with Echizen-no-kami.
