1690.

(the Dairi's Court not computed) 182070 of which were males, and 223573 females. (See the latter End of the IXth Chapter of the Vth Book.)

The same year, on the third day of the fourth month, died in the famous Convent Obaku, the above mention'd Chinese Missionary Ingen, in the fourscore and second year of his age. The following months, the growth of the field suffer'd much by rain and hail, whereby a great famine was occasion'd, for which reason the Emperor issued new orders to distribute rice to the poor in the chief Cities.

In the eighteenth year, and the eighth of the Nengo Jenpo, on the eighth day of the fifth month, (1680, on the 24th of June) died the secular Monarch Jjetzna. He was after his death, according to custom, related among the Gods, and call'd Gen Ju in den.

In the nineteenth year, in the fifth month, the pompous Title of Sei Dai Seogun Nai Dai Sin Sioni i ukonjeno Taiso, was by the Emperor conferr'd on the now reigning secular Monarch Tsinajos, who was a younger brother of Geniuin, and Jjetiru, or Daijoin his third

Son.

In the twentieth year, and the second of the Nengo Tenwa (of Christ 1682) there was again a great famine and mortality in Japan, particularly in and about Miaco.

In the twelfth month of the same year, on the 28th day, a Fire broke out at Jedo, which laid the best part of that great City in ashes.

In the twenty first year, which was the third of the Nengo Tenwa, died Tokumatz, the now reigning secular Monarch's only Son and hereditary Prince, for whose death the Empire went into a general mourning, that no musical Instrument was to be touch'd, nor any kind of rejoycings to be made for three years.

The same year, on the fifth day of the twelfth month, the City of Jedo suffer'd again by Fire.

This Emperor reign'd twenty four years, and resign'd the Crown to his Son.

Taiko Sama. This celebrated Monarch was a Peasant's Son, and in his younger years Butler to a Nobleman. But by his courage and merit, he rais'd himself to be Emperor of Japan. He reduced all the Provinces of Japan, which were then as yet divided, and govern'd by particular Princes, under his Power and Sovereignty, and became the first absolute Secular Monarch. He was after his death, according to the custom of the country, related among the Gods, and honour'd by the Dairi with the divine title Tojokuni Daimiosin. His temple, where his urn is kept, stands at Miaco, but is at present almost decay'd, the Secular Empire being gone over into another Family. XXX. FIDE TSUGU, alias Quabacundono, who was the Son of Joo in Iziro, and Taicosama's Nephew, reign'd under his Uncle, tho' but a little while.

FIDE JORI, Taicosama's Son, being under age, when his Father died, was by him committed to the care and tuition of Ijejas Sama, one of his favourites and counsellors of state, who oblig'd himself by a solemn oath, sign'd with his own blood, that as soon as the young Prince should come of age, he would quit the regency, and deliver the Empire into his hands. On this condition Jejas his daughter was married to the Hereditary Prince, who enjoy'd the Empire, or at least the title of Emperor, under his tutor and father-in-law fourteen years. XXXII. JEJASSAMA, otherwise Ongosio, and Daifusama, usurp'd the throne upon Fide Jori his Son-in-law. He granted the Dutch East India Company a free commerce to Japan, in the year of Christ 1611. He was after his death deify'd according to custom, and call'd Gongensama. He lies buried at Niko, near Miaco,
