浜波墾之海水之温深水以
浸凡奇仏理跪之観者指宗
勝楼則若能之若也昔人謂
匡庭之勝如一都廿一史爰易
窮能之勝亦若此藩文学雪
子仲殿游能有紀行山清水能一
曲寄之筆端展而覧之宛如
船造其境流れ略対覚山有
霊秀筆弥治磅礴迫前
先一都二十一史浩瀚広博無
人非不読而唯善続者必窮討
不遣又能提綱挈領述而荘
現代語訳
浜の波は海水を温め、その深さに浸されて、あらゆる奇異なる仏理の景観が跪（ひざまず）くように広がり、宗勝楼を指し示せば、まるで能登そのものの如くである。昔の人は、「匡庭の勝景は、一都二十一史に匹敵する」と言った。ここに能登の勝景を窮めるもまた、これと同様である。藩の文学者・雪子仲殿が能登を遊覧して紀行を著し、山の清らかさ、水の美しさを一曲に寄せて筆の端に表した。これを展げて覧れば、宛（あたか）もその境地に船で赴くようであり、流れの如く、山の霊秀なる景観がおぼろげながら覚えられ、筆はますます磅礴（ほうはく）として迫り来る。そもそも一都二十一史は浩瀚にして広博であり、読まぬ者はなけれども、ただよく続けて読む者のみが必ずその奥義を窮め探って遺さぬものである。また能く提綱挈領（ていこうけつりょう）して述べ荘（かざ）ること……

The waves of the shore warm the seawater, and immersed in its depths, all the wondrous scenery of Buddhist mystery prostrates itself before the viewer. Pointing to Sōshō-rō (the tower of outstanding victory), it is as if one beholds the very essence of Noto itself. The ancients said, "The splendid scenery of Kyōtei (the capital district) is comparable to the entire breadth of the Twenty-One Histories." Here, to exhaust the splendors of Noto is likewise so. The domain's man of letters, Master Yukiko Naka, traveled through Noto and composed a travel record, entrusting the clarity of its mountains and the beauty of its waters to a single composition, committing it to the tip of his brush. Unfurling it and viewing it, one feels as if sailing directly into that realm itself; vaguely one perceives the spiritual elegance of the mountains through the flow of the prose, and the brushwork grows ever more overwhelming and majestic. Now, the Twenty-One Histories are vast and comprehensive — there is no one who has not read them — yet only those who diligently read them through will surely exhaust and investigate their depths without omission. Moreover, one who can skillfully grasp the essential threads and give an ordered account...
