Chapter 21 (The Shore in Twilight)
二声氏 [にせいし] Nisei-shi
丈 [じょう] Jou (stature)
委州 [いしゅう] I Province (entrust)
大卜 [だいぼく] Daiboku of the Ministry of Summer. I'm not certain about this, but I think the homophone daiboku is being used here similarly to youjimbou, or "bodyguard." If you recall the famous Kurosawa film, it can also be a name or title.
