現代語訳
（前ページより続き）御戸を閉めて祝屋へ行く。それより片岡殿まで巡り、玉橋より楼門の下に着座する。《割書：西上・北面》次に所司・別当が葵を持って来て、冠の巾子に掛けさせる。さて下向する。社務代は大田まで宮めぐりをする。
二十二日、今日、檜物師の方より二寸五分の御櫃二十合を神主へ持って来た。
二十三日、神主代より、禁裏・仙洞・新院・女院・御様・若宮様・長橋殿・御蓮殿・新中納言殿・当社伝奏、以上十一箇所へ葵を進上する。台は幅一尺四寸・七寸、縁（ふち）六分、足五寸の二重繰り足である。次に御衆へは足四寸の替わりばかりである。御所々様へは葵八くさり、残りは四くさりである。高坏二つずつ、（昨日）檜物師より来た御櫃を高坏の上に置き、その上に葵・楓（かつら）を置く。使いは所司大夫・刀祢一人で、白衣にて所司の供として参る。所司大夫は狩衣、あるいは直垂である。
二十四日、暮れ方に神人が御参を催し、三度申す。束帯・土屋着也。祝は
庁屋に着いて、御供の御後に添って参られる。葵は今日もまいる。御供が土屋の前を過ぎる時、各々平伏すること例の如し。玉橋にて祓（はらえ）、例の如し。陰陽師の廊下に着き、忌子（いみこ）が参る。御戸を開いて神供の作法は例の如し。両方（の）御供参りの外陣において、朝の日供（にっく）が参る。御戸を閉めて宮巡りを片岡殿まで行い、また土屋に着座する。その時、所司・別当の二人が来て、「神主・祝よ、御立ち候え」と申された時、沓のままで橋殿へ昇（練り）る。神主の裾は別当が、祝の裾は所司が持つ。松明は左右の腋橋に神人が立てる。橋殿を過ぎて、玉橋の中央に北向きに両官（神主・祝）が北面して立つ。その時、額当（ひたいあて）・木綿襷（ゆうたすき）《割書：藤也》を所司・別当の二人が掛けさせる。さて両官は橋殿の西方の腋橋より（南へ）渡り、また橋殿へ南より昇り、橋殿の中ほどより北一間ほどに両官が並び立つ。その時、別当が祝詞を捧げ、神主一人がこれを読む。《割書：立ちながら、北面して読む》読み終えて別当に返す。それよりまた玉橋へ行き、初めの所にて並び立つ時に、所司・別当が木綿襷等を取って三つに

英語訳
[Continued from the previous page] The doors are closed and the procession proceeds to the Hafuri-ya (ritualists' hall). From there, they circuit as far as Kataoka-dono, then from the Tama-bashi (jewel bridge) take their seats below the Rōmon (two-storied gate). 《Marginal note: West as upper seat, facing north》 The shoshi (administrative official) and bettō (chief administrator) then bring aoi (hollyhock) and have it hung from the kōshi (topknot-mount) of each person's cap. They then withdraw (descend). The shamu-dai (shrine affairs representative) performs the shrine circuit as far as Ōta.
22nd Day: Today, the hinomono-shi (box craftsmen) brought twenty lacquered boxes (o-hitsu) of 2-sun 5-bu size to the head priest.
23rd Day: On behalf of the head priest (kannushi-dai), aoi offerings are presented to a total of eleven recipients: the Imperial Palace (Kinri), the Retired Emperor's Palace (Sentō), the New Retired Emperor (Shin'in), the Empress/Imperial Lady (Nyoin), the O-sama (an imperial consort), the Young Prince (Wakamiya-sama), Nagahashi-dono, Ohasu-dono, the New Middle Counselor (Shin-chūnagon-dono), and the shrine's court liaison (tōsha densō) — eleven locations in all. The stand (dai) measures 1 shaku 4 sun wide by 7 sun deep, with a 6-bu rim and 5-sun legs in double-kuri-ashi (curved-leg) style. For the o-shū (the imperial attendants' group), only the height of the legs differs, being 4-sun legs. For the various o-tokoro-sama (noble households), eight bundles (kusari) of aoi are provided, with four bundles remaining for others. Two high stands (taka-tsuki) each — the o-hitsu received from the box craftsmen (yesterday) are placed upon the taka-tsuki, with aoi and katsura (Japanese Judas tree) placed on top. The messenger consists of one shoshi-dayū and one tonnei (shrine official), dressed in white robes, accompanying the shoshi. The shoshi-dayū wears a hunting robe (karigoromo) or a suō (direct-hanging robe, hitare).
24th Day: At dusk, the jinin (shrine attendants) summon the procession, announcing three times. The participants are dressed in formal court attire (sokutai) and are seated at the Tsuchiya (earthen hall). The hōri (ritualist)
is seated at the Chōya (administrative hall) and accompanies the rear of the procession. The aoi offering is also presented today. When the procession passes before the Tsuchiya, each person prostrates themselves as is customary. At the Tama-bashi, a purification (harae) is performed as is customary. The procession arrives at the corridor of the Onmyōji (yin-yang master) and the Imiko (sacred child attendant) comes forward. The inner doors are opened, and the procedure for the divine offerings proceeds as customary. In the outer sanctuary (gaijin), with both sets of offerings in attendance, the morning daily offering (nikkū) is also presented. The doors are closed, and the shrine circuit is conducted as far as Kataoka-dono, after which the procession again takes seats at the Tsuchiya. At that moment, the two officials — shoshi and bettō — come forward and announce: "Head Priest and Ritualist, please rise." At this, the participants ascend to the Hashi-dono (bridge hall) while still wearing their shoes (kutsu). The bettō holds the train of the head priest's robe, while the shoshi holds that of the ritualist. Torches are held upright by jinin on the side bridges (waki-bashi) to left and right. Passing through the Hashi-dono, both officials (the head priest and ritualist) stand facing north at the center of the Tama-bashi. At this point, the shoshi and bettō place upon them the hitai-ate (forehead cover) and yū-tasuki (mulberry-fiber shoulder cord) 《Marginal note: made of wisteria》. The two officials then cross from the western side bridge of the Hashi-dono (going southward) and ascend the Hashi-dono again from the south, standing side by side approximately one bay (i.e., one ken) north of the center of the Hashi-dono. At this point, the bettō presents the norito (ritual prayer text), and the head priest alone reads it. 《Marginal note: Read while standing, facing north》 Upon completing the reading, it is returned to the bettō. They then proceed again to the Tama-bashi and stand in line at the original position, whereupon the shoshi and bettō take up the yū-tasuki and other items and divide them into three…
