太常博士、通事舍人四員再引太尉、司徒、中書令、侍中、吏禮部侍郎複進至冊寶所稍南，立定。
Four academicians and communication officers again led the Grand Commandant, Minister of Education, Director of the Secretariat, Palace Attendant, and the Vice Ministers of Personnel and Rites forward to a point just south of the book and seal and held position.
次通事舍人、太常博士又二員分引寶，禮部侍郎押寶而行，奉寶司徒、讀寶侍中、舉寶官於寶後以次從之，詣西階下，至冊寶褥位少置冊北，寶南，樂止。
Next, two more communication officers and academicians led the seal separately; the Vice Minister of Rites escorted it, and the Minister of Education, Palace Attendant, and seal-lifting officers followed behind. They went to the foot of the western steps and briefly set book and seal on the cushioned station with the book to the north and the seal to the south, then the music stopped.
奉寶司徒、讀寶侍中、舉寶官、捧寶官於寶後以次從升。
The Minister of Education, Palace Attendant, seal-lifting officers, and seal-bearers followed behind the seal in order as they ascended.
讀寶侍中於欄子外前楹間稍西立以俟。
The Palace Attendant who would read the seal stood just west of the front pillars outside the railing to wait.
捧寶官先入，舉寶官次入，讀寶侍中又次入。
The seal-bearers entered first, then the seal-lifting officers, and then the Palace Attendant who would read the seal.
侍中執笏進，跪稱：「侍中臣某讀寶。」
The Palace Attendant advanced with tablet in hand, knelt, and declared: "Your subject, Palace Attendant [name], reads the imperial seal."
侍中俟寶興先退，通事舍人引，降自西階，複本班，訖，舁寶官進前，與捧寶舉寶官等取寶盝興，置於殿之西間褥位案上，東向。
The Palace Attendant waited until the seal was lifted, then withdrew first; communication officers led him down the western steps back to his station. Casket bearers then advanced with the seal-bearers and seal-lifting officers, lifted the seal casket, and set it on the cushioned table in the western bay of the hall, facing east.
