It describes how the aforementioned hamam appeared when it was first erected and before it lived through the vicissitudes of fires and earthquakes and the addition of ignoble lean-to buildings to its attractive front. And then it describes how this humble servant, this poor one, determined the very exact date of construction of the aforementioned hamam, with the help of the many orders that the servants to the Sublime Porte and their descendants kept for posterity. It describes how this pleasurable hamam, after its completion, began to take up work and how it was readied – with water and wood – to render its joy-giving service to the people of the Protected City. And it describes the people who expended all their zeal humanly possible on making this bathhouse a most pleasurable one – the hamamcı, the attendants, the furnace stoker – and how these people come together in guilds. And then, who the people visiting the hamam and, by paying their akçes for the most excellent services given there, contributing to the valide sultan's charitable foundation were. And it describes how the aforementioned hamam worked hard, together with its siblings, in order to support the valide sultan's noble Friday Mosque and its dependencies in Üsküdar, and in detail how much money it earned in this quest.
