英語訳
(Continued from previous page) ...thereafter, a letter was to be dispatched on the occasion of every pilgrimage to Tōei-zan, but as this had become standard practice, it is not recorded hereafter.
Item: On the same day, at Manpuku-zan, a tea ceremony (o-chanoyu) was performed in observance of the hundredth anniversary of the death of Lord Taiyūin.
Item: On the twenty-first day of the fourth month, likewise, as a memorial Buddhist service (hōji) was to be held at Tōei-zan, the head of the ōshoban (chamberlain's guard) Nakane Yukinojō (Shūkan), dressed in noshi-me robes and long hakama, was dispatched as an envoy to the main temple lodgings (hon-bō) at that site, where an offering of five sheets of white silver (hakugin) was presented as incense money (kōden). (This had been decreed by written order at the residence of Lord Hotta Sagami-no-kami on the twentieth day of the eleventh month of the previous year.)
Item: On the same day, as the aforementioned memorial service had concluded, the resident official (rusui) Tsuda Kuemon (Moriyuki) was dispatched as an envoy to the duty commissioner Sakai Uemon-no-jō (Tadayori) to inquire after the well-being of the Shogun (Kubō-sama). (Notice had been received on the nineteenth.)
Item: On the twenty-seventh day of the same month, a circular notice from the Great Inspectors (ōmetsuke) was forwarded via the resident officials of Lord Matsudaira Aki-no-kami (Yoshinaga) and Lord Matsudaira Ōi-no-kami.
Item: As the Retired Sovereign (Sentō) had fallen ill and was unable to recover, His Majesty passed away (hōgyō) on the twenty-third of this month. Accordingly, all retainers are to attend court (sō-shusshi) on the twenty-eighth, tomorrow, to pay their respects.
Note: All retainers are also to attend at the Nishi-maru.
Item: The monthly ceremonial salutations (tsuki-nami o-rei) are hereby cancelled.
Item: Those who are ill, of young age, or retired shall send a messenger to the residences of the Senior Counselors (rōjū) on monthly duty, Oki-no-kami and Tajima-no-kami.
