現代語訳

一番乗りは石井弥七左衛門、二番乗りは石井伝右衛門。放火の一番は石隈五郎左衛門、二番は田代四郎左衛門である。

また曰く、同二十七日、三の丸から二の丸の右の方の簀戸口から、自身一番乗りしたのは牧野伝蔵である。敵を進撃し、戦闘の先頭で、彼らが住んでいる穴小屋の間を襲撃したところ、簀戸際を防御していた敵と激しく戦った。本丸の下の蓮池の脇で取って返し、小屋の周り辺りで二間ほどのところで鉄砲を構えて相待っていた。伝蔵は十文字の槍を持っていたのか、筒口へ押し付けかかる時、鉄砲を放った。誤たず槍の柄

に当たり、弾が逸れて肘に中り、打ち倒された。家人一番の輩が駆け付けて引き立てた。その後、立花の先手、また鍋島の人数等が二の丸の小屋に火の手を上げたという。出丸から入った輩は、こちらはそれほどまでに遅くはなかったと申すまじきことと言ったという。

また曰く、同二十七日、細川越中守、同肥後守の人数二万八千六百人が攻め口の三の丸へ即時に乗り込み働いた。徒党を討ち捨て、二の丸へ突き込み放火した。二の丸口にて凶徒数輩を討ち取り、その外数多を討ち捨てにした。酉の刻前、本丸海手の角から西口まで人数が攻めかかり、塀の手に付いて本丸

英語訳

The first to breach was Ishii Yashichizaemon, the second to breach was Ishii Den'emon. The first to set fires was Ishikuma Gorozaemon, the second was Tashiro Shirozaemon.

It is also said that on the same 27th day, the first to breach by himself from the third bailey through the bamboo gate entrance on the right side of the second bailey was Makino Denzo. Advancing against the enemy at the head of battle, when he attacked between the pit huts where they were living, he fought fiercely with enemies defending the bamboo gate area. He turned back at the side of the lotus pond below the main bailey, and around the huts, at about two ken distance, enemies were lying in wait with loaded firearms. Denzo was carrying a cross-shaped spear, and when he pressed forward toward the gun muzzles, they fired. The shot did not miss, hitting the spear shaft,

and the bullet deflected to hit his elbow, knocking him down. The foremost of his household retainers rushed up and helped him to his feet. After that, Tachibana's advance guard and also Nabeshima's forces set fire to the huts in the second bailey. Those who entered from the outer bailey said that their side was not so delayed, which should not be said.

It is also said that on the same 27th day, the forces of Hosokawa Etchū-no-kami and Hosokawa Higo-no-kami, numbering 28,600 men, immediately mounted an assault on the third bailey at the attack point. They struck down the rebel bands, broke into the second bailey, and set it on fire. At the entrance to the second bailey they killed several of the rebels, and struck down many others. Before the hour of the Rooster, forces attacked from the sea-facing corner of the main bailey to the west entrance, reaching the walls of the main bailey.
