現代語訳
晴れていたが、また七ツ時(午後4時頃)から曇り始め、夕方から砂が少々降り、夜になると戸や障子がきしむ音がして、浅草辺りでは少し揺れたように感じたという。八日にも一日中曇り、砂が降り、屋根に霜が懸かったようになった。その上に白い毛のようなものがちらちらと降った。長さは四寸(約12cm)ほど、また長さ七寸(約21cm)ほどのものもあったという。九日には小雨が降り、砂も止んだ。
上記の被害の大よその範囲は、信州追分より武州鴻巣宿まで、南は渡瀬・寄居辺りより、北は吾妻郡中之条村まで。それより北については分からない。おおよそ長さ二十八、九里ほど、横二十里余り。武州・信州・上州・野州・越後にわたり、越後については高田辺りまで。
信州浅間山麓・上州吾妻郡蒲原村にて
千余人のうち、十七人が残った(生き残った)。
西久保村 中村 草木原村 羽尾村
松木村 〆五ヶ村、皆死(全滅)
英語訳
It had been clear, but around the hour of the Seventh (around 4 PM), it clouded over again. From the evening, a small amount of sand fell, and as night came, the doors and shoji screens creaked and rattled, and around Asakusa it felt as though there was a slight tremor. On the eighth day, it was cloudy all day, sand fell, and the rooftops became covered as if with frost. On top of that, white hair-like fibers drifted down scattered here and there. They were about four sun (approximately 12 cm) in length, with some measuring about seven sun (approximately 21 cm). On the ninth day, light rain fell and the sand finally stopped.
The approximate extent of the affected area described above stretched from Oiwake in Shinshū to Kōnosu-juku in Bushū; from Wataruse and Yorii in the south to Nakanojō village in Agatsuma District in the north, with the extent beyond the north being unknown. The area covered approximately twenty-eight to twenty-nine ri in length and over twenty ri in width, spanning the provinces of Musashi, Shinano, Kōzuke, Shimotsuke, and Echigo—extending as far as Takada in Echigo.
At Kanbara Village in Agatsuma District, Kōzuke Province, at the foot of Mt. Asama in Shinshū:
Of over one thousand people, only seventeen survived.
Nishikubo Village, Naka Village, Kusagibara Village, Haneo Village,
Matsuki Village — in total, five villages: all dead (completely annihilated).
