Next, the Shoshi Taifu (Chief Administrator) comes to the lowest seat and asks those assembled whether the sacred offerings (shinku) should be set up. The Kannagi (神主, Chief Priest) replies that they should indeed be set up.
Next, all rise from their seats and proceed to the Tsuchiya (土屋, earthen building), as is customary. However, the officials of both Ujigami shrines (i.e., Upper Kamo and Lower Kamo shrines) remain in the Samurai-dokoro (侍所, waiting hall) and follow along when the sacred robe chest (kamiko no karabitu) departs.
Next, when the sacred robe chest departs, the officials of both Ujigami shrines, together with the Gofukusho Betto (御服所別当, head administrator of the sacred robing hall), follow in procession. The officials of both Ujigami shrines then proceed to the Tsuchiya.
The procedure is as follows: first, they enter the Second Torii, cross the Sukoko Bridge (簀子橋) on the Negi's side, pass through the Watadono (渡廊), the Shingu Gate (新宮御門), the Karamon (唐門, Chinese-style gate), and place [the chest] to the northwest of the Wakamiya Haiden (若宮拝殿, outer worship hall of the Wakamiya shrine). The Gofukusho Betto waits nearby, facing south on the eastern side.
Next, the sacred offerings (shinku) depart (for the Hafuri-kata's portion only). The Onyo Taifu (陰陽大夫, chief of the Yin-Yang office) purifies them at the designated place.
The procedure is as follows: first, one shinjin (神人, shrine servant) holds a branch of sakaki (sacred evergreen), presents it before the deity, and also carries a torch. Next comes the choshi (銚子, ritual sake vessel, with one branch and a covering of silk). Then come seven covered baskets (御櫃) for the seven shrines' offerings (七社神供), each with a silk cover, all carried by the Tone (刀禰, lower-ranking shrine officials). Then another shinjin presents before the deity and carries a torch. Then follows the Hon-

miya (本宮, main shrine) Hafuri-kata's shinku in seven covered baskets (with silk covers as above), accompanied by the Betto (別当) and Shoshi (所司). All proceed from the Second Torii across the Negi's Sukoko Bridge. At that point, the choshi and the seven shrines' offerings pass over the Tamabashi (玉橋, jeweled bridge), through the Romon (楼門, tower gate), and the Nakamon (中門, middle gate), entering through the Tsumado (妻戸, side door), and arrive at the Nishi Okusho (西御供所, western offering preparation hall). The Honmiya shinku passes through the Watadono, the Shingu Gate, and the Karamon, arriving at the Higashi Okusho (東御供所, eastern offering preparation hall).
Next, the Kannagi and all others rise from their seats and proceed to the divine presence, as is customary. The Onyo Taifu purifies their bodies at the designated place.
The Negi (禰宜, associate priests) and Hafuri (祝, ritualists) separate and take their respective seats in the Sukiro (透廊, open corridor) and Watadono, etc. The ujibito (氏人, clan members) in charge of transferring the offerings (tengu/転供) take their designated places. Notably, first the Imiko (忌子, a ritually pure child attendant) waits at the designated place. As for the Onyo officials, after completing the purification of their bodies, they come to the Wakamiya Haiden (a note states: "It is said that after purifying the sacred robes, the body purification follows") and purify the sacred robes (the Gofukusho removes the lid of the karabitu, the Onyo performs the purification, and then the lid is replaced as before). They then withdraw.
Next, the Mokudai (目代, deputy administrator) takes a torch and places it in the small garden (kogawa). Also, bonfires are lit in the open courtyard to the west of the Sugio Shrine (杉尾社) (the torch official handles this).
Next, two shinjin bring the honored sealed rice (御封米, two bales, though they are empty bales) and place them in the small garden.
