（前頁より続き）…ふためく所に、一方より込み入り火を放ったところ、城中にも〔脇書：「寄手（攻め手）」〕味方に色を付けた者どもがいて、火をかけ、落ち行く者が多かった。彦右衛門尉が落ち行く所に、毛屋七郎が走り寄り、一槍に突き殺し、難なく首を打ち落とした。誠にこの三人の悪人どもの不忠によって、義景が御腹を召されたのは当年の八月二十日のことであったが、漸く九十日の間の命を延ばし、今このように一戦もせずして一揆のために討たれてしまったことの哀れさよ。かくして一揆の者どもは並々ならず喜び、屋形の供養に

報い、忠を顕わした。さて、一揆の大将たちが相談して、「信長がやがて走り来るであろう。切り込まれてはよくあるまい。道路の要所要所に要害を構えて防ぐべし」として、江北（北近江）と越前との堺（境）、坂取（板取）の陸城（りくじょう）には下津磨和泉守を、木目峠の要害には石田・西光寺・堀江甚介を、今庄・火打が城には

[Right folio]
(Continued from the previous page) ...while they were in a state of panic and confusion, attackers broke in from one direction and set fire to the castle. Within the castle, there were also those who had secretly marked themselves as allies [side note: "of the attacking force"], and they too set fires; many fled. As Hikouemonojō attempted to flee, Keya Shichirō rushed upon him, ran him through with a single spear thrust, and effortlessly struck off his head. Truly, it was by the disloyalty of these three villains that Yoshikage had been forced to take his own life on the twentieth day of the eighth month of this very year. Only some ninety days had passed since then, and now, without even a single proper battle, they had been cut down by the ikki—how pitiful a fate. Thus the men of the ikki rejoiced greatly, and offered their loyalty as a memorial tribute to their late lord.
[Left folio]
Then the commanders of the ikki conferred together, saying: "Nobunaga will soon come rushing here. It would be ill-advised to let him break through our lines. We should construct fortifications at every key point along the roads and hold him off." Accordingly, at the border between Kōhoku (northern Ōmi) and Echizen, at the land fortress of Sakatori (Itatoru), Shimottsuma Izumi no Kami was stationed; at the stronghold of Kime Pass, Ishida, Saikōji, and Horie Jinsuke were positioned; at Imazō and the castle of Hiuchi,

Shichiri Mikawa no Kami [side note: "at the castle of Hachifuse"]; at Hachifuse, Awa [side note: "Ga? or Shika?"] Ga Saburō and his brothers; at the castle of Suitsu (or Somatsu), Ōtsutsumi En [side note: "this character is unclear and uncertain"]; at the strongholds of Fukuji and Kōno, Wakabayashi Nagato no Kami and his son; at the castle of Fuchū, Miyake Gonojō (possibly Mitani Gonojō); at the castle of Toyohara (Toyotomi), Shimoma Chikugo no Kami garrisoned himself; and throughout the [side note: "province"]...
