現代語訳

名のみの子孫を先駆けとして

寛永十五年寅正月元日、総攻撃の時、板倉内膳正殿と御目付石谷十蔵殿が両築山に灯籠を出し、石火矢を撃つと一度に鬨の声を上げ、三陣一度に寅の下刻に攻め寄せ取り乗るべき旨を下知したが、刻限を違えて攻め寄った。城中からも鉄砲・槍・長刀・石・飛礫を撃って防いだ。有馬殿の人数は卯の上刻に崩れ、鍋島殿の人数もこの時崩れた。これによって内膳正殿はこれをご覧になって、手回りだけで有馬殿の人数に下知して「引き返すことはない、返せ返せ」と仰せられ、総

勢より先駆けして塀下まで進まれたところを、城中から待ち受け見定めて鉄砲を放ち、ああ、また内膳正に命中し、ついに討たれてしまわれた。誠に諸軍を進めて一時に攻め落とそうと思召された御心底を皆人が感じた。

この故に同時に石谷十蔵殿、松平甚三郎殿が鉄砲に当たって負傷された。松平の人数は御定めの如く攻め寄せ塀下へ着いて働き、巳の刻に至るまで退かなかったところ、勢の中を横切りに崩れる者があった事は、黒田右衛門佐殿の足軽共が崩れ掛かったためである。黒田殿の足軽共は金の留め具で甲を着け、誰れ

Taking only the name of descendants as the vanguard

On New Year's Day of the fifteenth year of Kan'ei (1638), year of the Tiger, during the general assault, Lord Itakura Naizen-no-shō and Inspector Ishigaya Jūzō placed lanterns on both artificial hills, and when they fired stone arrows, war cries arose at once. They commanded that all three formations should simultaneously attack and storm the position at the late hour of the Tiger, but they attacked at the wrong time. From within the castle, they also fired muskets, spears, long swords, stones, and projectiles in defense. Lord Arima's forces collapsed at the early hour of the Rabbit, and Lord Nabeshima's forces also collapsed at this time. Seeing this, Lord Naizen-no-shō commanded Lord Arima's forces with only his personal retainers, saying "Do not retreat, return, return!" and advanced ahead of the entire

force to beneath the wall, where those in the castle waited, took careful aim, and fired muskets. Alas, they struck Lord Naizen-no-shō again, and he was finally killed. Truly, everyone felt his noble intention to advance all armies and capture the position at once.

For this reason, at the same time Lord Ishigaya Jūzō and Lord Matsudaira Jinzaburō were hit by musket fire and wounded. Matsudaira's forces attacked as ordered, reached beneath the wall and fought, not retreating until the hour of the Snake, but some among the forces broke and fled across their path because Lord Kuroda Uemon-no-suke's foot soldiers had collapsed upon them. Lord Kuroda's foot soldiers wore armor fastened with gold clasps, and whoever
