現代語訳
川へざんぶと投げ込んで、錦の川となったのである。隠し置いてあった戸障子や唐紙、藁薪などを取り払い、枓や掛矢を持って上からたたき散らし、粉々に打ち砕いて五寸と続く所もなく、たちまち跡形もなくしてしまった。質物として取り置いた刀や脇指は鞘を打ち割り、金銀の縁頭や鮫、目貫まで逃げ取って、中身だけを手に持って、屋敷の内の小高い所は猪が掘るように、あれほど広い屋敷の内を隅から隅まで掘り返し、
まるで唐堀したかのようであった。誰が言うともなく諸道具は皆寺へ預けたということで、直ちに金台寺へ押し寄せた。六十万人と決まって押し寄せ、時宗の門前で遊行して踊り念仏の足取りで騒ぎ回るのは、まことに賑々しいことであった。打節上人は江戸に留守で、隠居や鑑寺も遠方へ他行していて、この間剃髪したばかりの道心者が立ち出て、何の思案もあろうか。法師とはいえ俗性を離れず、高声で「そもそもこの寺は権現公の御上意によって、元祖一遍上人が開いた最初の紫雲

They removed the hidden sliding doors, Chinese paper, straw, and firewood, and wielding mallets and sledgehammers, struck from above, scattering and smashing everything to smithereens until not even five inches remained intact, instantly reducing it all to nothing. The swords and short swords held as pawned items had their scabbards broken open, and even the gold and silver fittings, ray skin, and menuki ornaments were seized and carried off, leaving only the bare blades in hand. The elevated areas within the estate were dug up like wild boar rooting, and the entire vast estate was excavated from corner to corner,
as if it had been plowed like a field. Without anyone saying so explicitly, word spread that all the household goods had been entrusted to temples, so they immediately rushed to Kontai Temple. Sixty thousand people, as determined, pressed forward, parading in front of the Jishu sect temple and cavorting about with the steps of dancing nenbutsu, creating quite a commotion. The head priest Uchibushi was away in Edo, and the retired priest and Kan Temple clergy had also traveled to distant places. A newly tonsured lay monk who had recently shaved his head came forward - what could he possibly devise? Though a monk, he had not abandoned his secular nature, and declared in a loud voice: "This temple was established by the will of Gongen-ko, and was the first Purple Cloud temple founded by the patriarch Ippen Shonin..."
