現代語訳

東の出崎を占領した。細川殿の軍勢二百人ほどが水門の枡形に攻めかかったところ、一揆勢三百人ほどが槍先を揃えて攻めかかり、双方の槍先が五、六尺ほどの間合いで激しく戦った。そのまま細川殿の勢は引き返し、また反撃するというように両軍二度激突し、三度目にようやく槍先が合うと見えたが、敵は一斉に坂を登って奥へ引き込んだ。細川殿の軍勢は水門に攻め込んだが、槍での戦いはなかった。その時松倉勢は水門左脇の見張り台の石垣に取り付いたところ、敵が一斉に鉄砲を撃ちかけ、すぐに引き取った。味方に少々負傷者があった。一揆の男女が重なり合って倒れ、平地のようになったのを踏みつけて

暮れ時分に本丸に攻め込んだ。右近も一緒に攻め込んだ。私も仕寄場の非番であったため同じ軍勢とともに二之丸には遅れて参ったが、本丸へは仕寄場から先に来た者どもと一度に攻め込んだ。敵は一度も戦わず奥へ引き込んだ。この時、時々引き残された者を捕らえたり、あるいは石垣の下に重なって倒れている者どもの首を取ったり、また女の鼻などを削いだりして、あれこれと申すような者どもも多くあったということであるが、松倉家中では一切用いなかった。もっとも打ち捨てよと申し付けるような事であった。奥から鉄砲を少々撃ち出したが、松倉勢は本丸で討ち続け

英語訳

took the eastern promontory. When about 200 men of Hosokawa-dono's forces attacked the square courtyard (masugata) at the water gate, about 300 rebels advanced with their spears leveled, and both sides' spear points clashed fiercely at a distance of about five to six shaku. Hosokawa-dono's forces retreated and then counterattacked in this manner twice, and when it appeared that the spear points would clash for a third time, the enemy all climbed up the slope and withdrew into the interior. Hosokawa-dono's forces entered the water gate, but there was no spear fighting. At that time, Matsuura's forces approached the stone wall of the watchtower on the left side of the water gate, whereupon the enemy fired their muskets all at once and immediately withdrew. There were some wounded among our allies. The rebel men and women lay piled upon one another like level ground, which was trampled underfoot.

At dusk we attacked the main bailey. Ukon also attacked together with us. Since I was also off-duty from the siege works, I arrived late at the second bailey with the same forces, but I attacked the main bailey at the same time as those who had come earlier from the siege works. The enemy did not fight even once and withdrew into the interior. At this time, some would occasionally capture those left behind, or take the heads of those piled up and lying under the stone walls, or cut off women's noses and such - there were many who did various such things, but this was not used at all within the Matsuura household. It was indeed the kind of thing that should be abandoned and forbidden. A few musket shots were fired from the interior, but Matsuura's forces continued fighting in the main bailey...
