4. The Empire Pacified

1So then His Augustness Nigi-hayabi waited on and said to the august child of the Heavenly Deity: “As I heard that [thou], the august child of the Heavenly Deity, hadst descended from Heaven, I have followed down to wait on thee.” Forthwith presenting to him the heavenly symbols, he respectfully served him. So His Augustness Nigi-hayabi wedded the Princess of Tomi, sister of the Prince of Tomi, and begot a child, His Augustness Umashi-ma-ji. (He was the ancestor of the Chiefs of the Warrior-Clan, of the Grandees of Hodzumi, and of the Grandees of the Neck-Clan.) So having thus subdued and pacified the savage Deities, and extirpated the unsubmissive people, [His Augustness Kama-yamato-ihare-biko] dwelt at the palace of Kashibara near Unebi, and ruled the Empire.
