溜めておいて渇きを凌いでいるうちに、同五月六日、辰巳風で走り、陸地へ乗り寄せたいと思い、また神籤を上げたところ、陸地まで二百里という神籤が下り、それから日々神籤を上げたところ、だんだん陸地が近くなり、同八日には五十里という神籤が下り、翌九日四時頃、東北の方に雪の積もった高山を見つけ、同十日には一里程のところに陸地が見えたため、乗組の者たちは一同に喜びましたが、本船では乗り付けが困難なため、端船を下ろし、糧米三俵その他手回りの品を積み移し、本船は岩場へ乗り捨て置き、船霊だけを持って十六人とも端船から上陸したところ、日本の土地とは見えず、砂地で人家がないため

異国でもあるのだろうかと思いましたが、尋ねることのできる人もおらず、仕方なくその島に十日程度滞在し、人家の有無についてまたも神籤を上げたところ、五十里程のところに人里があるという趣の神籤が下ったため、なお又端船に乗って陸地に沿って奥の方へ向かい、同六月四日煙が見えたため人家と察し、その所を目当てにして尋ね参ったところ、人影が見えたため近寄ったところ、鳥の毛の付いた皮のような物を着用した見慣れない人が出てきたため、全く異国へ漂流したことと思ったところ、何か言葉をかけ手招きなどをしましたが、一向に通じず、恐ろしく思い船を寄せませんでしたが、だんだんその

While we were storing rainwater and enduring thirst, on the 6th day of the 5th month, with southeast winds we sailed, wanting to approach land. We drew another sacred lot, which indicated the land was 200 ri away. From then on, we drew lots daily, and the land gradually grew closer. On the 8th day, the lot showed 50 ri, and the next day, the 9th, around 4 o'clock, we spotted a snow-capped high mountain to the northeast. On the 10th day, we could see land about one ri away, so all the crew members rejoiced together. However, since it would be difficult to approach with the main ship, we lowered a small boat, transferred three bags of provisions and other personal items, abandoned the main ship among the rocks, and all sixteen of us landed from the small boat, taking only the ship's guardian spirit. The place did not appear to be Japanese territory - it was sandy ground with no houses.

We wondered if this might be a foreign country, but since there was no one we could ask, we had no choice but to stay on that island for about ten days. We drew lots again about whether there were any houses, and the lot indicated there was a human settlement about 50 ri away. So we got back in the small boat and traveled along the coast toward the interior. On the 4th day of the 6th month, we saw smoke and judged it to be from houses, so we headed toward that place as our target. When we arrived and saw human figures, we approached, but unfamiliar people came out wearing what appeared to be animal skins with bird feathers attached. We realized we had completely drifted to a foreign country. Though they spoke some words and beckoned to us with their hands, we could not understand them at all. We were frightened and did not bring our boat close, but gradually those
