現代語訳
も見えず申し出る者もなく、全く一人の様子につき両親も
殊の外心配していた折、伊勢の御師が御札配りに下って
いたので、右の話をした所、占い祈祷をすれば伊勢
参宮に参った様子であるから、決して苦労にはならず、間も
なく帰ってくるであろうから、神信心をしているように言われ、御幣束
を拵え、昼夜御神酒御明かりを信心するように申した
ことです。信心したところ、右の娘九日目に帰ったので話を聞いた
所、左の通りです。
伊勢へ参りたい志願が盛んに起こり、紺股引など
人知れず拵え、また自分の着類を持ち出し、新地にいろ
いろ人の取り持ちなどをしている老婆がいる所へ頼み、金子
二十二両借り受け、それより夜四つ時頃立ち出た所、表に
煎餅屋甚の着物を着た四尺ばかりの男がいて申すことには、夜
中娘にて何方へ行くのかと言われたので、伊勢へ参詣
に参りたく立ち出たと申したところ、私等も伊勢へ参るもの
であるから同道いたそうということで、何人であるか尋ねた
ところ、蠟燭の芯掛けをするもので何も疑うには
及ばないと申し、同道して府中を出離れ市川
へ参った処、ぐらぐらするように覚えた所、それより其の人の
脇の下へ抱えられ参ったように覚えているうち、其の人が申すことには

He told them to have faith in the gods, prepare sacred streamers (gohei), and maintain faith with sacred sake and offerings day and night. When they practiced this faith, the daughter returned on the ninth day, so when they heard her story, it was as follows:
A strong desire arose to go to Ise, and she secretly prepared dark blue leggings and such. She also took out her own clothing and went to an old woman in the pleasure quarter who arranged various things for people, borrowed twenty-two ryō in money from her, and set out around the fourth hour of the night. At the entrance, there was a man about four shaku tall wearing the clothes of Senbei-ya Jin, who said, "Where is a young girl going in the middle of the night?" When she replied that she had set out wanting to go on pilgrimage to Ise, he said, "We are also going to Ise, so let us travel together." When she asked who he was, he said he was someone who made candlewicks and there was nothing to be suspicious about. They traveled together and left Fuchū for Ichikawa, where she felt dizzy, and from then on she remembers being carried under that person's arm, and while this was happening, that person said...
