English translation by Millichip:
I say the edict that says: “Say to the Emperor: I am pleased to see and hear that when the Emperor, my son, who rules the eight-islands as a living God, makes the treasure that the divine emperor, too awesome to mention has created and started, into a treasure of the land and made this princess serve, the laws, established and carried out in the realm, should never cease.”I say: “Say to the Emperor the edict that says: When I saw the acts the Emperor performed today I thought that they were not only simple play but also taught and led the people to act according to the way of the relationship between master and vassal and parent and child. So I wish the Emperor would, while teaching and leading the people, reward one or two people as a sign that this should be received and carried on and not be forgotten or lost.”I proclaim, all of you hear the edict I proclaim as the words of the Emperor that says: “For the actions I perform and serve today, I choose and reward one or two people who should be rewarded, starting with the Imperial children and gathered Lords who serve in my reign. So, I raise your caps and ranks so that you will serve as long and distant as heaven and earth, inheriting your parents’ names with a clean and pure heart in reigns of Emperors yet to rule, not forgetting the relationship between lords and vassal and parent and child as in the edict I proclaim today.”I proclaim, all of you hear the Imperial edict that says: “Further, I raise the cap of officials of the Imperial heirs. Among these I raise the cap of Shimotsumichi-no-Asomi Makibi who is appointed as scholar.”
