現代語訳
なり。突手に似たれども格別の意味あり。
突手突膝
突手も突膝も体の虚より出る故に負けなり。稽古怠る時は心気収まらず、また手足ともに堅くして自由をなさず。ただ気ばかり急ぐ故に、手足ともに朽木を折るに似たり。その技を気は覚え、手足は覚えざるなり。
浮足高足（うきそくたかそく）
浮足は必ずしも足の浮きにあらず、心の浮きなり。高足は過ぎる足、足らざる足の名なり。譬えば水に物を浮かべるが如く、五体ともに力なく心に及ばず。また足という文字に規矩の乗ると書く。手足は心の眷属故に、心に及ばざれば形崩れて堪えること能わず。略伝にも「心気必ず応じ、道理先に定む」と見えたり。然る故に行事はただ心の一手の出る処を知るべし。必ずや非なる見なり。
忍運再入の足（おしはこびさいにゅうのそく）
忍は相撲の第一なり。前に記すが如く、善悪ともに出る処を堪え、また忍とは上を柔らかにするの形、内は堪えて大丈夫。運とは気を手足に通するの利。再入は再び入る心、一途にしてよく堪ゆ。二心は変ずるの元なり。故にこれを戒む。足とは足にあらず。総て技に気の乗るを知る故に足の字を用ゆ。足ばかり浮くということは決してなきものなり。皆心の浮く、技に通ることと知るべし。故に忍んで勝つ。少し忍ばざれば大謀乱ると古語に言うが如く、技はすなわちその機の乗る処にて、浮舟に棹さすが如く、知者の一失、愚者の一得。技にて勝つこと勿れ。ただ心の一手。譬えば古語に「戦を和せざるならば以て勝ちと決すべからず」と言えり。一致すると一致せざるとなり。これを以て心の勝ち、心の負けと言うなり。

英語訳
It is so. Though it resembles thrusting hands, it has a special meaning.
Thrusting Hands and Thrusting Knees
Both thrusting hands and thrusting knees emerge from the body's void, therefore they result in defeat. When one neglects practice, the heart-spirit does not settle, and both hands and feet become stiff and cannot move freely. Since only the spirit rushes, both hands and feet resemble breaking rotten wood. The spirit remembers that technique, but the hands and feet do not.
Floating Feet and High Feet (ukisoku takasoku)
Floating feet are not necessarily the floating of the feet, but the floating of the heart. High feet is the name for feet that go too far or are insufficient. Like floating an object on water, all five body parts lack strength and cannot keep up with the heart. Also, it is written that rules ride upon the character for "feet." Since hands and feet are retainers of the heart, when they cannot keep up with the heart, form collapses and one cannot endure. Even in the abbreviated transmission it states "heart-spirit must respond, and principle is determined first." Therefore, the referee should know only where the heart's single move emerges. This is surely an incorrect view.
Enduring, Advancing, Re-entering Feet (oshibakobi sainyū no soku)
Endurance is the foremost principle of sumo. As recorded before, one endures wherever good or evil emerge. Also, "enduring" is the form of making the upper body soft while the interior endures with fortitude. "Advancing" is the benefit of channeling spirit through hands and feet. "Re-entering" is the heart that enters again, single-minded and able to endure well. A double heart is the source of change, therefore this is warned against. "Feet" does not refer to the feet. Since one knows that spirit rides upon all techniques, the character for feet is used. The idea that only feet float absolutely does not exist. One should know that it is all about the heart floating and connecting to technique. Therefore, one wins by enduring. As the old saying goes, "if one does not endure a little, great plans will be disrupted." Technique is precisely where opportunity rides, like poling a floating boat - the wise man's one mistake, the fool's one gain. Do not win through technique alone, but only through the heart's single move. As the old saying states: "If war is not harmonized, victory cannot be determined." It is about being unified or not being unified. This is called the heart's victory and the heart's defeat.
Criticism of Sumo
Indeed, both winning and losing in sumo all emerge from oneself. Generally, when a person's weakness becomes visible...
