現代語訳
（執筆代の忠顕は、会所兼太への披露・神主の用事の断り・所労（病気）による断りを兼ねる。富俊は御囲の取り壊しで出頭しているため欠席。）
一、御祭の勘定の日限はいつ頃になるか。来月四日に御決定となった。
一、来月朔日の御能の案内を川勝権六へ書状を認めてくださるようにとの旨を別当よりお申し入れがあった。事例の通りにご連絡なさるべきである。
一、葵使の両人より勘定帳が提出されたこと。
一、五月分の職中勘定帳が提出されたこと。執筆代がこれを読み上げた。
一、昨二十六日の小寄合にて御用水返献・惣代出頭の事、御所の取次中へも御意を得られた事。右につき保覚が演説した。
一、池尻町十左衛門より造作（工事・修繕）の願いが出た事。造作方へ附けられた事。（割書：調進奉行を御兼頼なさった方がよいか、来会での御相談が然るべきとのことである。）
一、播磨介存顕が申し入れてきた。兼ねてより御意を得ておいた奉公の願いが叶い、来月朔日より毎日、一条家へ詰めることになったため、役義を辞退したく、また退席の儀もお願いしたいとのこと。先に御約束の儀であるので即ちお聞き届けとなった。
一、御生所の御囲の取り壊しにつき、朽葉二百束を湯屋の冬の焚き付けとして湯屋へ附けるとのこと、五郎太郎が届け出た。残りの木柴は廻りこくち（周辺の関係者）へ配分すべきである。御酒代の義は先格の通りである。金木五十貫目・代二匁五分、松木五十貫目・二匁、柴五十貫目・二匁、割屑五十貫目・一匁五分。この度も右の通りである。
一、筑前守より申し入れがあった。傍示（境界標）の際にある柊の株二本を受け取りたいとのこと。御許容となった。
一、祈雨報賽の御義はいつ頃になさるべきか。来会の事（次回の寄合で議論する）。
一、小山の庄屋へ昨日、惣代が帰りがけに「明朝早々に参るべし」と申し遣わしたが、いまだ参らないため、今日また仲間の権兵衛を遣わした。御用水の返献が相済んだので下げ申すべき段を申し遣わしたところ、御役人中より仰せ下されるには、「今暁七ツ時（午前四時頃）より御池へ下した」由である。
一、大野の水役人が参上し、大野掛は今日までに残らず植付けを仕舞ったとの御届けを申し上げた。即ち御酒代は先に仰せになった通り、銭一貫文を今日下された。
一、寄合の前に、庸清・季脩・保覚・保土・史顕等へ、この間、保韶が内々に話していた義について、躬清より演説があった。
一、寄合の後、保韶・茂季・保覚・保土・執筆代の史顕等が五月分の職中勘定帳を算入した。
二十八日 丑（うし） 晴れ。
一、今日は社中御静謐（特段の用事なし）。御囲の取り壊しの木柴の配当をした。木の分は直安・躬清の両人が相済ませて、花返り（はなかえり）の神主より駿河介まで十三倍（十三口）である。柴の分は茂季より上の、廻り兼令まで六倍（六口）である。
二十九日 寅（とら） 晴れ。昼過ぎより雨天。
一、今朝、食事の後、老若（上下の役人・神主）が参会した。出席者は（以下略）。
当月の職中勘定帳が読み上げられた。今日は例の如く、会所亭にて大勘定を催す。御席よりご出頭の御方はご兼頼（代理出席）くださいとのこと。老若の惣代は左京進成文である。
一、巳の刻過ぎ（午前十時頃過ぎ）、御奉行の弁殿より神主へ召状が到来した。申し入れたい儀があるので、ただ今惣代が御里亭へ参上すべしとのことである。よって博久・保覚がただちに出頭した。
一、巳の半刻頃（午前十一時頃）、会所亭にて大勘定があった。神主の正久・保韶・茂季・保土・学顕（以下続く）。
英語訳
(The acting scribe Tadaaki sent regrets on behalf of the assembly hall and Kenta, as well as for shrine priest business and illness. Tomitoshi was absent due to his attendance at the demolition of the *o-kakoi* [sacred enclosure].)
1. As for the deadline for the festival accounts — it was decided that this would be on the 4th day of next month.
2. Regarding the notice of the *nō* performance on the 1st day of next month: a request came from the *bettō* (administrative head) to have a letter drafted and sent to Kawakatsу Gonroku. It was determined that this should be communicated in the customary manner.
3. Both of the *aoi* (hollyhock) envoys submitted their account books.
4. The account book of the shrine officials' accounts for the 5th month was submitted. The acting scribe read it aloud.
5. Regarding yesterday (the 26th), the small meeting (*ko-yoriai*) concerning the return of the sacred pond water and the appearance of the representatives — the matter was also brought to the attention of the intermediary officials at the Imperial Palace. Yasusato gave an account of the above.
6. A petition for construction/renovation work was submitted by Jūzaemon of Ikejiri-chō. The matter was referred to the construction office. (Marginal note: It would be advisable to ask the *chōshin bugyō* [procurement magistrate] to take on this task as well; it was suggested that this be discussed at the next meeting.)
7. Harimano-suke Arinori submitted a request. He reported that a petition for service that had previously received approval had now been granted, and that from the 1st of next month he would be attending the Ichijō household daily. He therefore wished to resign from his current duties, and also requested permission to withdraw from the meeting. As this had been agreed upon earlier, his request was immediately granted.
8. Regarding the demolition of the *o-kakoi* (sacred enclosure) at the birthplace shrine (*o-shōsho*): Gorōtarō reported that two hundred bundles of rotten leaves (*kuchiba*) would be given to the bathhouse (*yuya*) for use as winter fuel. The remaining firewood was to be distributed to the surrounding communities (*mawari-koguchi*). The allowance for sake was to follow the previous precedent. The prices were as follows: hardwood, 50 *kanme*, at 2 *monme* 5 *bu*; pine wood, 50 *kanme*, at 2 *monme*; brushwood, 50 *kanme*, at 2 *monme*; split scraps, 50 *kanme*, at 1 *monme* 5 *bu*. The same rates applied this time as well.
9. A request came from Chikuzen-no-kami: he wished to receive two *hiiragi* (holly) stumps located near the boundary markers (*hōji*). Permission was granted.
10. As for when the thanksgiving ritual for the answered rain prayers (*kiu hōsai*) should be held — this was deferred to the next meeting.
11. Yesterday, on the representatives' return journey, a message had been sent to the village headman (*shōya*) of Koyama saying he should come early the following morning. However, as he had still not arrived today, the attendant Gonbei was dispatched again. The message sent was that since the return of the sacred pond water had been completed, the water supply should be released downstream. The reply conveyed by the officials was that the water had been released into the sacred pond beginning at the Hour of the Seventh Bell (*nanatsu-doki*, approximately 4 a.m.) of this morning.
12. The water overseer from Ōno came to report that the planting in the entire Ōno district had been completed by today. Accordingly, the sake allowance that had been previously announced — one *kanmon* in coin — was distributed today.
13. Before the meeting, Tsunekiyo, Suemichi, Yasusato, Yasuchi, and Fumishige were given an account by Mimikiyo regarding matters that Yasushige had been privately discussing during this period.
14. After the meeting, Yasushige, Shigesue, Yasusato, Yasuchi, and the acting scribe Fumishige entered and tallied the accounts in the shrine officials' ledger for the 5th month.
---
**28th Day. [Day of the Ox / *Ushi*]. Clear.**
1. Today was quiet throughout the shrine community (*shachū go-seihitsu*). The firewood from the demolition of the *o-kakoi* was distributed. The timber portion was handled by Naoho and Mimikiyo, and distributed from the *hanagaeri* shrine priests down to Suruga-no-suke — thirteen shares in all. The brushwood portion was distributed from Shigesue upward, to Mawari-kenrei — six shares in all.

**29th Day. [Day of the Tiger / *Tora*]. Clear; rainy from midday.**
1. This morning, after the meal, senior and junior members (*rōnyaku*) gathered. Those in attendance: [list not yet given in the transcription].
The account book of the shrine officials for the current month was read aloud. Today, as is customary, a major accounting meeting (*dai-kanjō*) was to be held at the assembly hall. Those attending on behalf of the presiding officials were asked to serve as representatives (*kanerei*). The representative for the senior and junior members was Sakyo-no-shō Narifumi.
2. Shortly after the Hour of the Snake (*mi no koku*, approximately 10 a.m.), a summons (*meshijō*) arrived from the presiding official Lord Hino-Ben, addressed to the shrine priests. It stated that there was a matter to be discussed, and that the representatives should come to his private residence (*o-satotei*) immediately. Accordingly, Hirohisa and Yasusato departed at once.
3. Around the half-hour of the Hour of the Snake (approximately 11 a.m.), the major accounting meeting (*dai-kanjō*) was held at the assembly hall. Present were shrine priests Masahisa, Yasushige, Shigesue, Yasuchi, Gakunori [continued below]...
