For distinguishing the copy from the script (original) of the kuzen, the three Chinese characters '口宣案' (kuzen-an; draft of kuzen) were written on the reverse edge and the so-called 'mei,' the name of the shokei to whom the kuzen was submitted, was added on the upper right of the first line of the copy before being handed over.
これは、口宣正文と区別するために端裏に「口宣案」の3文字と最初の行の右上に「銘」と呼ばれる口宣を渡した上卿の氏名を付記した上で渡された。
