現代語訳

【右丁】
働きたい旨を申し立てたところ、奉行より、預かりの身であるから、そのようなことは及ばない、心配せずに暮らすようにと、懇切に申し聞かせられた。それでも、しばらくまた一ヶ年余りが過ぎたので、どうしても相応の働きをしたいと重ねて申し出た。また「リヨーチ」の方へ参り、その旨を申し述べたところ、それならば当分の間、家来分として雇おうということになり、薪を割り、水を汲み、掃除をし、弁当を持って外へ出かけるような仕事を言い付けられ、そのように過ごしていた。

一、伝蔵のことであるが、日本では「筆之」という名であったが、この地の人々の呼び方を聞いていると、いつも「テンゾ」あるいは「テンゾウ」

一、重助は「リヨーチ」の世話により、湊から三里ほどのところにある「ユウロー」という所へ参り、百姓の「テツハニ」という人の家を宿として、医師を迎えて養生したが、その効験もなく、痢病（りびょう）のようになり、翌年（末）の正月の末に病死した。近辺の人々がいろいろと世話をしてくれ、「ミシハンカ」という僧侶のような人に葬式のことを頼んだところ、経文のような

They also went to the "Ryochi" and stated their case, whereupon he said that in the meantime he would employ them as servants, and they were assigned tasks such as splitting firewood, drawing water, cleaning, and going out carrying packed lunches.

One entry: Denzo — whose name in Japan had been "Fudenojo" — noticed that the local people, whenever they called to him, always seemed to be saying "Tenzo" or "Tenzou," and so he changed his name to Denzo accordingly.

One entry: Toraemon was hired by a local carpenter and gradually became his apprentice.

One entry: Jusuke, through the care of the "Ryochi," traveled to a place called "Yuuroo," located about three ri from the harbor, where he lodged at the home of a farmer named "Tetsuhani" and called upon a doctor to tend to his health. However, there was no improvement; he developed something resembling dysentery, and died of illness at the end of the first month of the following year. The people of the surrounding area rendered various assistance, and a monk-like figure called "Mishihanka" was asked to handle the funeral arrangements. He chanted what appeared to be sutras, and...
