English translation by Millichip:
I proclaim: “The Shioyaki Prince is only one of a group of four Princes. If he is linked to the Funato Prince, even if he did not join them at the place where they plotted and was not reported about, then he should be punished by being dispelled far. However, his father, Niitabe, an Imperial heir, serves with a clean and pure heart. I forgive his crimes this time so as to establish his family. Serve the Emperor with a clean and proper heart from now on.”
