現代語訳

【右丁】

母が（子を）携えて来りて喜んで曰く、「種えた夜より宿疾が全く止み、壮熱（高熱）を発するに至っても、また異変なし」と。一、男児五歳。素稟（生まれつきの体質）が虚弱で、二・三歳の時に吐乳を患い、時々痙攣を発し、四歳にして微熱があれば必ず搐搦（ひきつけ）を発し、人事を省（かえり）みず（意識を失う）。懇ろに種法を請うも、固辞してこれを帰らせた。三度来りてこれを請うに、やむを得ずこれを種えるに、美痘を発した。第八日に寒戦（悪寒戦慄）して大熱を発し、譫語（うわごと）するに至るも、少しも搐搦せず。山口本立の姪女、年二歳。素稟怯弱にして、身体虚肥（虚弱で浮腫みがある）。常に吐乳に慣れ、熱があれば必ず痙搐（ひきつけ）を発して上吊反張（上を向いて体が反り返る）す。二月下旬にこの症を発す。月を越えて

【左丁】

これに種法を請う。本立は辞してこれを肯じず。懇ろに請いて止まず。「もし天行（流行病）に逢わば、必ずや免れることあたわず。今、種えて死を致すも、怨みるところなし」と言う。よってこれを施すに、順美の痘（良好な種痘反応）を発し、熱を発するに至っても、宿疾は全く発せず。一、女児、初生（生まれたばかり）より百余日。小瘡を発して癒えず。種痘の後、漸々に消散す。一、女児、年二歳。稟受（生まれつきの体質）が薄弱で、面色が萎黄（青黄色で生気なし）、瞳子散大（瞳孔が開いたまま）、頭顱（頭蓋骨）合わず。来りて種法を請う。法において種えることが不可であることをもって辞す。頻りに請いて止まざりければ、針を清めて仮りに種えけるに、その日より微熱・吐乳あり、第二日に黄水を吐く、第三日に漸く減ず、四日目に点を見る（種痘反応の点が現れる）。夜〔以下続く〕

The mother brought the child and joyfully reported: "From the very night of the inoculation, the chronic ailment (*shukushitsu*) completely ceased, and even when a high fever (*sōnetsu*) developed, there was no abnormal change whatsoever." Next: a boy, age five. His innate constitution (*sohon*) was frail; from the ages of two and three he suffered from regurgitation of milk, and occasionally had convulsions. By the age of four, even a slight fever would inevitably bring on convulsions (*chikudaku*) and loss of consciousness. He earnestly requested the vaccination, but was firmly turned away and sent home. He came three times to make the request, and finally, being left with no choice, the vaccination was performed, and a fine pustular reaction (*bidō*) developed. On the eighth day, he suffered chills and rigors (*kansen*) and broke into a high fever, even falling into delirium (*sengo*), yet he did not convulse in the least. The niece of Yamaguchi Honryū, age two. Her innate constitution was timid and weak, her body puffy and flaccid (*kyohī*). She was accustomed to habitually regurgitating milk, and whenever she had a fever she would invariably convulse (*keichiku*) and go into opisthotonic spasm — throwing her head back with her body arched rigidly. This condition manifested in the latter part of the second month. After a month had passed,

the family came to request the vaccination procedure. Honryū declined and was unwilling to consent. They pleaded earnestly and would not desist, saying: "If she encounters the epidemic (*tengyō*), she will surely not be able to escape it. Even if she should die as a result of the inoculation, we have no cause for grievance." And so it was administered. She developed a smooth and fine pustular reaction (*junbi no dō*), and even when fever arose, her chronic condition did not manifest at all. Next: a girl, more than one hundred days old from birth. She had developed small sores (*shōsō*) that would not heal. After vaccination, these gradually resolved and dispersed. Next: a girl, age two. Her innate constitution (*hinjū*) was extremely weak; her facial color was sallow and withered (*iō*), her pupils were dilated (*dōshi sanda*), and the bones of her skull had not yet closed (*zurokō awazu*). She came to request the vaccination procedure. She was declined on the grounds that, according to the proper protocols, inoculation was not permissible in her case. As she persisted in her entreaties without ceasing, the needle was purified and a provisional/trial inoculation (*karitate*) was administered. From that very day there was slight fever and regurgitation of milk; on the second day she vomited yellow fluid; on the third day these symptoms gradually diminished; on the fourth day a reaction point appeared. That night — *[continued]*
