承徳二年正月二十七日 Shōtoku 2 {1098} 1.27
Translated by Joan Piggott

Twenty-seventh day. Hinoe ne. 1 Weather was clear. The Ceremony for Assigning Posts (jimoku) [was held]. Around the Hour of the Rabbit [5-7AM] I went to the Ōidono since Ōtono [Fujiwara no Morozane] was there. Last night there was a fire at the palace. It started from a hibachi. I heard that people put it out. Then around the Hour of the Horse [11-1PM] Lord Viceroy [Fujiwara no Moromichi] arrived. He left after a bit. Around the Hour of the Dog [7-9PM] I went to the royal palace [Kayanoin] with four outriders. 2 [After] walking a bit, I entered through the guard post room (jin) of the Left Gate Guards. First I went to the viceroy's quarters (onchokuro). Then I went to a discussion of the senior nobles (jinnoza). Then I went before His Majesty (gozen no za) as usual.

  1. Thirteenth day of the sexagenary cycle. ↩

  1. Kayanoin was then the town palace (satodairi) of Horikawa Tennō. ↩
