11:65 Although the illness you are currently suffering is a trying one, if this illness leads you to replace your mind exactly as I tell you to, everything from this point will be delightful. *Note: The phrase “Your suffering at this time” allows one to conclude that either Shuji or Matsue was ill at the time.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 174 六五、現在悩んでいるのは辛いであろうけれども、この悩みによって心を入れ替え親神の言う通りにして行けば、これから先は心楽しみである。 註　いまなるのなやみ、秀司先生御夫妻の何れかが当時御身上であったものと拝察される。
