現代語訳
武左衛門、藤兵衛修験、年行事法花堂へ掛かり、居宅を打ち潰す。これは買い置きの沙汰はないけれども、金銀多く、商人も貸し、穀物買い占めの恨みなる由。さて賊徒の有様は、己が顔を煤に塗し、つづれの者ども斧、掛矢を携えて引き裂き紙の纏を真先に押し立て、頭取と思しきもの采配振って下知し、家財残らず打ち潰す。その外、角兵衛、清内以上五軒を打ち潰し、太鼓を打ち法螺貝吹き立て、時の声を合図に潰し掛かり、鐘を合図に引く時は後勢先手となり、その所の者に纏を持たせ案内させ。それより遠藤兵右衛門支配所志賀村へ掛かり、平右衛門、吉兵衛、大次郎を潰し。
篠目の頃内山へ出で、次郎右衛門、文蔵、万吉の家内残る所なく打ち潰す。それより平賀へ出でし頃は三日五つ時なり。質屋宇右衛門、平三郎三軒を潰し、内藤志摩守領分下中編へ打ち出で、種月院という禅寺へ掛かり本堂庫裏残らず。その外、喜惣治、伝八三ヶ所を潰し、野沢へ出る。先だって原村池田屋政二郎方へ使いを立て、俵糧炊き出し致すべしとのことにて、鍋釜多く集め米二十俵を炊きたし、大勢込み入りこれを食らい。それより隅屋甚右衛門を散々に打ち潰し、土蔵茶俵までを取り出し
英語訳
Buzaemon, Tōbei (a yamabushi practitioner), and the annual administrator of Hokkeidō were targeted, and their residences were destroyed. While there was no talk of hoarding, they had much gold and silver, lent money to merchants, and were resented for buying up grain. Now, as for the appearance of the bandits: they smeared their faces with soot, and these ragged people carried axes and large hammers, tearing apart paper banners which they held at the front. Those who appeared to be leaders wielded command batons giving orders, and completely destroyed household goods. Besides these, five establishments including Kakubei and Seiuchi were destroyed. They beat drums and blew conch shells, using battle cries as signals to begin destruction, and when bells were rung as signals to withdraw, the rear guard became the vanguard, having local people carry banners to guide them. From there they proceeded to Shiga Village under the jurisdiction of Daikan Endō Hyōzaemon, and destroyed the establishments of Heiemon, Kichibei, and Daijirō.
Around the time of Shinome they went out to Uchiyama, completely destroying the households of Jirōemon, Bunzō, and Mankichi without leaving anything. When they went out to Hiraga, it was the fifth hour of the third day. They destroyed three establishments: the pawnbroker Uemon and Heisaburō. Then they went out to Shimonaka-hen in the territory of Naitō Shima-no-kami, attacked a Zen temple called Shugetsuin, completely destroying the main hall and kitchen quarters. Besides this, they destroyed three locations including Kisōji and Den-hachi, then went out to Nozawa. Previously, they had sent messengers to Ikeda-ya Seijirō in Hara Village, saying that they would provide cooked rice from straw bags. They gathered many pots and kettles, cooked twenty bags of rice, and a large crowd pressed in to eat this. From there they thoroughly destroyed Sumiya Jinemon, taking out even tea bags from the storehouse.
