English: In addition to "Hogen Monogatari," "Heiji Monogatari (The Tale of Heiji)," "Heike Monogatari (The Tale of the Heike)" and "Jokyu Ki (A Record of Jokyu)" are known generically as 'Four Volumes of Battle Story' ("Heike Monogatari Kanbunroku (Report)," which confirms that in the Middle Ages the manner of taking these battles in the periods of Hogen to Jokyu--a period of warriors' uprisings--as a series of incidents had already existed.
Japanese: この『保元物語』に『平治物語』『平家物語』『承久記』を合わせた4作品は「四部の合戦状」（『平家物語勘文録』）と称され、保元から承久にいたる武士の勃興期の戦乱をひと続きのもとして理解する見方が中世からあったことが確認できる。
English: This perspective is consistent with the assertion of "Gukansho (essay)," which regards the Hogen Disturbance as the beginning of 'the age of warriors.'
Japanese: これは、保元の乱を「武者ノ世」のはじまりであるとする『愚管抄』の認識とも一致しており、時代の画期であると考えてられていたことがわかる。
English: Although a few preceding war tales, such as "Shomon Ki (Tale of Masakado)," had already existed, it could be said to have made a contribution to the development of a new literary genre together with "Heike Monogatari."
Japanese: 『将門記』などの先行する軍記物語はいくばくか存在するものの、『平家物語』などとともに、あらたな文学のジャンル形成に寄与した作であるといえるだろう。
English: The various hypotheses that were made in the early modern times are all considered unreliable: Tokinaga HAMURO's hypothesis ("Daigo Zassho"), 中原師梁 hypothesis ("Reference on tale of Hogen"), Genyu's hypothesis ("Ryoshuku mondo"), Koyu Sojo's hypothesis ("New continuation of Kojidan, an episode on old accounts"), and so on.
Japanese: 近世までの説としては、葉室時長説（『醍醐雑抄』）、中原師梁説（『参考保元物語』）、源瑜説（『旅宿問答』）、公瑜僧正説（『新続古事談』）などがあるが、現在ではどれも根拠は薄弱とされる。
English: Among them, 'Ryoshuku mondo' referred to "New continuation of Kojidan," and Genyu and Koyu are considered to be one and the same.
Japanese: なお、このうち「旅宿問答」は『新続古事談』を引用しており、源瑜と公瑜はおなじ人物であるとされる。
English: Also, "Ryoshuku mondo' was quoted in "Ansai Zuihitsu (essay)" by Sadatake ISE, but it no longer exists.
Japanese: なお「旅宿問答」は伊勢貞丈の『安斎随筆』に引用されているもので、現存はしていない。
English: However, 'Ryoshuku mondo' states, 'In the periods of Hogen and Heiji, MINAMOTO no Yoshikata has created conflict with Yoshihira,' which implies a tale including the battle of MINAMOTO no Yoshikata and MINAMOTO no Yoshihira in 1155.
Japanese: しかし、この「旅宿問答」では「保元平治、源ノ義賢、義平ト一（ひとつの）乱ヲ作出シ玉フ」とあるところをみると、久寿2年（1155年）の源義賢・源義平の争いを含んだ物語のことを述べているらしい。
English: Because no variant texts mentioning this incident exists, it is quite doubtful whether the 'Hogen and Heiji' in 'Ryoshuku mondo' really refers to the tales of "Hogen" and "Heiji."
Japanese: しかし、この事件にふれた諸本は残されておらず、「旅宿問答」の言う「保元平治」が、本当に『保元』『平治』の物語のことであるのかどうかは、かなり疑わしい。
English: Above all, Nakaraibon (one of the variant texts) preserving the original form of "Hogen Monogatari" contains an article on an incident that occurred during the Jisho period.
Japanese: なによりも、『保元物語』中、古態本である半井本が治承年間の記事を有している。
English: Considering that the article appeared after the death of Emperor Nijo, the account in 'Ryoshuku mondo' can't indicate "Hogen Monogatari," even if what was written there is true.
Japanese: これが二条天皇の死後のものであることを考えれば、仮に「旅宿問答」の記述が事実であっても、『保元物語』のことを指しているとは思われない。
English: Nevertheless, these hypotheses are not taken seriously today.
Japanese: いずれにせよ、これらの諸説は、現在ではほとんどかえりみられてはいない。
English: People in recent years tend to assume that it was written by several authors or a group, and hypotheses have been advanced such as the one by Motoo ABE that Yoshimichi HATANO handed some of the tale down; or the one by Tamiki HARAMIZU and Hiroshi SUNAGAWA, which asserts that some people around FUJIWARA no Tadazane and Yorinaga (a father and a son) wrote it.
Japanese: 近年では、その制作にかかわって、複数の人、ないしは集団を想定する説が多くなっており、波多野義通を物語のいくつかの伝承者とする安部元雄の説、藤原忠実・頼長父子周辺の人物を想定する原水民樹・砂川博などの説が提出されている。
English: Because it is mentioned in the following 'The writing process,' this tale and "Heiji Monogatari" are often treated a set of tales.
Japanese: なお、以下の「成立」でもふれるように『平治物語』と一組のものとして扱われていることが多い。
English: There has for a long time been a hypothesis that the same author wrote both tales, and Tokinaga HAMURO and others as mentioned above have been attributed with the authorship of "Heiji Monogatari."
Japanese: 作者が同一であるという説も古くからあり、葉室時長らは『平治物語』の作者にも擬されている。
English: The contents of the manuscripts in class 4, a group of variant texts as discussed in 'Variant Texts,' correspond to the contents of "Heiji Monogatari," which leads people to assume that these are works written by the same author.
Japanese: 「諸本」の項目にかかわるが、第4類などは内容が対応しており、同一作者を想起させるものがある。
English: However, Nakaraibon, which seems to preserve the original form of "Hogen Monogatari," bears a similarity to Kotohirabon (one of the variant texts) of "Heiji Monogatari," so there is little correlation between them and it is difficult to consider them as works by the same author.
Japanese: 一方、『保元物語』では古態と思われる半井本が、『平治物語』では金刀比羅本に近いなど、対応関係にはとぼしく、作者がおなじであるとみることは難しい。
English: At least, there is no evidence to attribute these two tales to the same author.
Japanese: すくなくとも、このふたつの物語を同一作者と認定するだけの根拠はないといえる。
English: As mentioned in the preceding 'Authorship,' the tale contains an account off incidents during the Jisho era, so it is certain that it was written after that time.
Japanese: 「作者」でふれたように治承年間の記事を含むので、それ以降であることだけは動かない。
English: "Gukansho" mentions the Hogen Disturbance, saying, 'Although I have heard there may be a little something of the sort, I have not been able to see it,' and "Futsu-shodo shu (A Selection of Ordinary Advocates)," completed in 1297, says that 'Tales of Heiji, Hogen and Heike' were told by Biwa-hoshi (a blind minstrel who played the biwa (lute)).
Japanese: ただ、『愚管抄』に保元の乱についての話が「少々アルトカヤウケタマハレドモ、イマダ見侍ラズ」とあること、また永仁5年（1297年）成立の『普通唱導集』に「平治・保元・平家の物語」が琵琶法師によって語られたことが記されている。
English: Although they are fragmentary, these are the only materials that depict the process of writing.
Japanese: これらが、断片的ながら、成立についての材料として挙げられている程度である。
English: Based on the account in the former "Gukansho," Yasuaki NAGAZUMI assumed that "Hogen Monogatari" came into existence before "Gukansho" was completed in 1220.
Japanese: とくに前者の『愚管抄』の記述については、このことを根拠のひとつとして永積安明は『愚管抄』成立（1220年）以前に『保元物語』の誕生をみる。
English: However, as the author Jien himself wrote that he had not been able to see it, it is questioned that the account really refers to "Hogen Monogatari."
Japanese: しかし、著者である慈円自身が見たことがない、と言っているように、本当に『保元物語』のことを言っているのかどうか、不安視されてもいる。
English: While Hachiro NOMURA advocated a view that the tale would have been completed after 1220 based on the words in "Gukansho," 'I have heard there may be a little something of the sort,' so it seems difficult to know the process of writing "Hogen Monogatari" with this ambiguous record as a clue.
Japanese: 一方では、この『愚管抄』の「少々アル」を論拠に、物語の成立は1220年以降とみる野村八良のような見解もあり、この曖昧な記載から『保元物語』の成立をうかがい知るのは困難であろうと思われる。
English: Additionally, in "Gen-Pei Seisuiki (a story of ups and down of Gen-Pei)," a variant of "Heike Monogatari," Kiyomori mentions the 'diaries of Hogen and Heiji.'
Japanese: また、『平家物語』の異本である『源平盛衰記』の清盛の台詞として、「保元・平治の日記」なるものがみえている。
English: Even though it is conceded that this 'diary' is the same as the tales of "Hogen" and "Heiji," Enkeibon, which preserves the original form of "Heike Monogatari" but doesn't contain the same words, it is questioned whether it really tells the truth about the period when Kiyomori was alive.
Japanese: 仮にこの「日記」を『保元』『平治』の物語とおなじと認めた場合でも、『平家物語』の古態本である延慶(日本)本などにはこの話はなく、本当に清盛生存時の事実を伝えているかどうかはかなり疑問もある。
English: In recent years the assertion that it was completed after the Jokyu Disturbance has been advocated by Shigeru YUGE and others, claiming that Nakaraibon, which seems to preserve the original form most among the existent manuscripts of "Hogen Monogatari," quoted a text from "Rokudai Shojiki (a story of the victory of six generations)," which was written in 1223 or 1224.
Japanese: 近年では、『保元物語』現存伝本中、もっとも古態をとどめていると思われる半井本などに、貞応2年（1223年）、ないしは３年の成立である『六代勝事記』の文章が引かれているとする弓削繁の論などによって、承久の変以降の成立とみる見方もあらわれている。
English: Anyway, there is no historical record before "Futsu-shodo shu," which leads one to assume the existence of this tale, so it is generally considered that the tale was completed before or after the Jokyo Disturbance; however, no evidence exists to prove it.
Japanese: いずれにせよ、『普通唱導集』以前には、この物語の確実な存在を想定させる史料はなく、成立を承久の乱前後とみるのが通説であるが、確かな証拠は得られていない。
English: A prominent work entitled "Essays in Idleness" mentions that "Heike Monogatari" was told by Biwa-hoshi, but there aren't many records concerning the circulation of "Hogen Monogatari."
Japanese: 『徒然草』という著名な作品に琵琶法師の語りがあったことを記されている『平家物語』と違い、『保元物語』には流布について語る史料はそれほど多くない。
English: Except for "Futsu-shodo shu," as mentioned in 'The Writing Process,' there is only an article dated April 16, 1321 (according to the lunar calendar) of "Hanazono-in Shinki" by Emperor Hanazono, which says that 'Heiji, Heike and others' were told by Biwa-hoshi.
Japanese: すでに「成立」でふれた『普通唱導集』を除けば、花園天皇の手になる『花園院宸記』の元亨元年（1321年）4月16日(旧暦)の記事に「平治・平家等」の琵琶語りがおこなわれたとあるのを挙げ得る程度である。
English: Although it didn't say "Hogen," it seems likely that the description 'Heiji, Heike and others' includes "Hogen."
Japanese: 『保元』とはないが、「平治・平家等」とあるのによれば、おそらくは含んでいるものと思われる。
English: At least, the tale of Tametomo's heroism would have been well known to everyone from the mid- to late-Kamakura period.
Japanese: すくなくとも、鎌倉時代も半ばから後期には為朝の武勇譚などが巷間に広まっていたのであろう。
English: However, it is difficult to comment on the influences because little is known about the order in which these three tales were completed.
Japanese: しかし、この3つの物語の先後関係については不明な点が多く、影響を述べるのは難しい。
English: However, Kamakurabon and Enkeibon, of "Heike Monogatari," as mentioned in 'Variant Texts,' have nearly identical texts in places, so this confirms the connection between these works.
Japanese: しかし、諸本で述べる鎌倉本と延慶本『平家物語』がほぼ同文を採用している箇所があるなど、関係があることは間違いない。
English: Also, a relationship suggested in the formation of characters such as the wicked Genta-Yoshihira in "Heiji Monogatari" and Tametomo should be noted, but it is not yet certain.
Japanese: また、『平治物語』の悪源太義平と為朝の造形の関係なども注目されるところのではあるが、確かなことはわからない。
English: However, Nakaraibon and Kamakurabon of "Hogen," and Enkeibon and Nagatobon of "Heike" have nearly the same texts concerning a vengeful ghost of Sutoku-in, so it seems to be clear that one was modeled after the other.
Japanese: ただし、半井本・鎌倉本などの『保元』と延慶本・長門本などの『平家』に崇徳院の怨霊にまつわるほぼ同じ内容の文章が見られ、これは明らかに一方が一方を参考にしたものと考えられる。
English: A similar story of Sutoku-in also appears in "Hosshin-shu (A Collection to Promote Religious Awakening)," "Koji-dan (An Episode of Old Accounts)," and "Senshu sho (A Collection of Tales)," and there is a strong possibility that there was a mutual influence among these works, including the oral transmission of tales.
Japanese: この崇徳院説話については、類話が『発心集』『古事談』『撰集抄』にもみえており、口頭伝承なども含めて、影響を与えあった可能性が高い。
English: Although it is related to the following 'Relationship to the Historical Facts,' there is a conflict among the biographies of Tameyoshi, Yoshitomo and others in "Sonpi Bunmyaku (Biographies of Nobles and the Humble)" and "Heihan-ki (TAIRA no Nobunori's diary)" (which is a main source of this disturbance); moreover, "Sonpi Bunmyaku" is closer to "Hogen Monogatari."
Japanese: 次に、以下の「史実との関係」にかかわるが、『尊卑分脈』の為義・義朝等の伝記はこの乱についての根本資料である『兵範記』との間に齟齬がみられ、『保元物語』に近い。
English: This indicates that the biographies in "Sonpi Bunmyaku" were written according to the tale.
Japanese: これは『尊卑分脈』の伝記が物語にしたがって書かれたことを示唆している。
English: Additionally, Tamiki HARAMIZU pointed out that some lines from the tale appear in "Jinno Shoto-roku (A Record of the Authentic Line of Emperors)" and "Hojo-ki (A Record of the Hojo family)" ("Kanto Kassen-ki (A Record of Battles of the Kanto Region)").
Japanese: また原水民樹によって、『神皇正統録』や『北条記』（『関東合戦記』）などに物語の本文が利用されていることが指摘されている。
English: Above all, "Chinzei Yumiharizuki," by Bakin KYOKUTEI, is well known for its adaptation from "Hogen Monogatari," and the work was created with emphasis on the episodes of Tametomo.
Japanese: しかし、なんといっても著名なのは曲亭馬琴の『椿説弓張月』で、これは『保元物語』から為朝のエピソードを中心にを取り上げ、増補し、脚色したものである。
English: As has been mentioned, "Hogen Monogatari" has many versions of manuscript, and its contents and the order of the story vary among them.
Japanese: ここまで諸本についてふれてきたとおり、『保元物語』は複数の伝本が残されており、内容・話の順序には変更点が多い。
English: It is too complicated to organize all these contents and describe each single difference.
Japanese: これらの内容を整理して、逐一違いを述べていくのはきわめて煩雑となる。
English: Therefore, the contents of the tale mentioned here are mainly based on the Nakaraibon line, being the oldest existent manuscript 'Variant texts; Class 1,' which will be introduced later.
Japanese: そのため、以下では主として後に紹介する現存最古の写本「諸本・第1類」の半井本系統に即して物語の内容についてまとめる。
English: It says that the emperor's reign is splendid and it is a wonderful period.
Japanese: この法皇の治世が優れたもので、その時代が素晴らしいものであったことを記す。
English: Sutoku, who has already been cloistered, expects his son Prince Shigehito to succeed to the throne, but instead Prince Yon no Miya (Emperor Goshirakawa) takes the throne at the prompting of Bifukumonin.
Japanese: このとき院であった崇徳は自身の息子である重仁親王の即位を期待するが、美福門院の差し金で、即位したのは四宮（後白河天皇）であった。
English: Upon the death of the Cloistered Emperor, Sutoku begins devising a plan by which Shigehito can succeed to the throne, and the minister of the left, FUJIWARA no Yorinaga, who is in conflict with his brother Tadamichi, sides with Sutoku.
Japanese: この法皇の死をきっかけとして、崇徳は皇位を重仁のものとするべく計画を練りはじめ、兄忠通との争いとの争いをかかえていた左大臣・藤原頼長も崇徳に加担する。
English: During this time, incidents occur one after another and tensions in both camps are heightened, such as when MINAMOTO no Chikaharu is captured by TAIRA no Motomori, who is on the side of Goshirakawa, and the priest Shoson of Miidera Temple is captured, having tried to invoke disaster upon Goshirakawa at the request of Yorinaga.
Japanese: そんななか、崇徳に味方しようとした源親治が後白河方の平基盛によってとらえられ、また、頼長の依頼によって後白河を調伏しようとした三井寺の僧侶勝尊が捕らえられるなどの事件が相次ぎ、両陣営の緊張は高まっていく。
English: Among them, Tameyoshi refuses to follow the army because of his old age, recommending Tametomo instead of him, but finally he is persuaded by FUJIWARA no Norinaga to join the army.
Japanese: このなかでも為義は高齢を理由に従軍を断わり、為朝を対象に推薦するが、最後には藤原教長に説得されて腰をあげる。
English: Consequently, Yorinaga, who has been in Uji, returns to Shirakawadono (Shirakawa Palace), where the Emperor resides.
Japanese: これにあわせて、宇治にいた頼長も崇徳の御所である白河殿に戻ってくる。
English: Meanwhile, MINAMOTO no Yoshitomo, TAIRA no Kiyomori, MINAMOTO no Yoshiyasu and MINAMOTO no Yorimasa gather around Goshirakawa.
Japanese: 一方、後白河側に集まったのは源義朝・平清盛・源義康・源頼政らが集まる。
English: Of them, Goshirakawa tries to refuse Kiyomori's help because Kiyomori has taken care of Prince Shigehito, but Bifukumonin calls Kiyomori under the pretense that it is the will of the Cloistered Emperor Toba.
Japanese: このうち、清盛は重仁親王の乳母であることから、後白河は遠慮しようとするが、美福門院が鳥羽法皇の遺言と偽って清盛を呼び寄せる。
English: Tametomo suggests that all they can do to ensure their victory is make a night attack, set a fire and take the Emperor away, but Yorinaga treats it as the idea of an inexperienced person.
Japanese: 為朝は兵力でおとる自分たちが勝つためには、夜襲をかけて火を放ち、天皇を奪い取るしかないと献策するが、頼長は若気のいたりと取り上げない。
English: He also concludes that they should wait for the warrior-monks of Kofuku-ji Temple to help them, and opens a war of attrition.
Japanese: 興福寺の僧兵が援軍に来るのを待って持久戦を挑むべきであると結論する。
English: The Emperor side also prepares for the war, and Goshirakawa moves to East Sanjo Street from the inner court, taking with him the Three Sacred Treasures of the Imperial Family.
Japanese: 天皇側も戦にそなえ、後白河は三種の神器とともに大内裏から東三条通に移る。
English: Yoshitomo advises that they should start a war that night and fight a decisive battle at once, and Shinzei accedes to the idea.
Japanese: 義朝は戦に勝つためには今夜にでも仕掛けて、一気に決選を挑むべきだと進言し、信西はこれを許可する。
English: While the Sutoku side is preparing for war, Yoshitomo and Kiyomori lead their warriors and enclose the Shirakawadono before their enemy starts to move.
Japanese: 崇徳側が戦の準備をしている間にも、義朝や清盛は兵を動かし、敵が動き出すまえに白河殿を包囲する。
English: Yoshitomo attempts a counterattack, being in the vanguard of the army, but is dissuaded by Masakiyo KAMATA, who is a son of his caretaker.
Japanese: 義朝は先陣にたって反撃しようとするが、乳母子の鎌田正清に諫められる。
English: The vanguard Roku ITO and Koreyuki YAMADA challenge Tametomo, but they are shot by Tametomo's powerful bow.
Japanese: 先陣の伊藤六、山田是行らが為朝に挑戦するが、為朝の強弓の前に撃ち落とされる。
English: Although Kiyomori's army becomes tired, TAIRA no Shigemori attempts to challenge Tametomo by himself.
Japanese: 清盛の軍勢は色をなくすが、ただひとり、平重盛だけは為朝に挑もうとする。
English: Additionally, Yoshitomo attacks the gate that Tametomo is guarding, but KAMATA's army is defeated and Yoshitomo himself is driven into a difficult situation in which an ornament of his battle helmet is shot through with an arrow.
Japanese: 続いて義朝が為朝の守る門を攻めるが、鎌田の軍勢が蹴散らされ、義朝自身も兜の飾りを射ぬかれるなど窮地に陥る。
English: The war situation enters a new phase of retaliation, with Ietada KANEKO killing the vassals of Tametomo, but severe damage is inflicted on them and Kageyoshi OBA is seriously injured.
Japanese: 金子家忠が為朝の郎等を打ち取るなど一矢報いる場面もあったが、大庭景義が重症を負うなど、大きな損害を受ける。
English: Tametomo could kill Yoshitomo and Ietada if he wantｓ to do so, but he doesn't on purpose because of consideration for his older brother and sympathy toward the brave warriors.
Japanese: 為朝は義朝や家忠を殺そうと思えば殺すことができたが、兄への遠慮や勇者への共感があってあえて討つことをしなかった。
English: The warriors on the Sutoku side (other than Tametomo) also fight well, and Goshirakawa's army can't invade their position at all.
Japanese: 為朝以外の崇徳側の武士も善戦し、後白河側は一歩も攻め入ることができなかった。
English: Sutoku flees to Mt. Nyoisan, but he loses his energy there, parting from Tameyoshi and the others who had followed him until then.
Japanese: 崇徳は如意山へと逃亡するが、気力を失い、ここまでしたがってきた為義たちとも別れる。
English: During that time, Yoshitomo and others burn down Shirakawadono and Hossho-ji Temple, into which the rest of the enemy had fled.
Japanese: その間には義朝たちは白河殿や、敵の残勢が逃げ込んだ法勝寺を焼き払う。
English: Sutoku visits the houses of the people who were once closely connected with him, but nobody welcomes Sutoku.
Japanese: 崇徳はかつて関係の深かったひとたちの家々を訪ねるが、誰も彼を出迎えない。
English: Afterward, he heads for Ninna-ji Temple, where his younger brother Prince Kakushobo lives, and settles down there.
Japanese: その後、弟の覚性法親王のいる仁和寺へと向かい、そこで腰を落ち着ける。
English: Meanwhile, Tadamichi retrieves a position as the head of the clan from Yorinaga, and Tadazane gathers warrior-monks and secludes himself in Uji for fear of being killed.
Japanese: その間にも忠通は頼長から氏の長者の地位と取り戻し、一方の忠実は自分も討伐されることを恐れて、僧兵を集めて宇治にひきこもる。
English: Yoshitomo and Kiyomori burn down Sutoku's residence of Sanjo and Yorinaga's residence of Gojomibu before returning to the Imperial Palace.
Japanese: 義朝と清盛は三条の崇徳の御所、頼長の五条壬生の邸を焼き払い、内裏に帰還する。
English: Although he receives a reward, he feels that it's too little because he has turned his all relatives into enemies and sided with the Emperor, so he argues with Shinzei to make him reconsider it and succeeds in persuading him.
Japanese: ここで恩賞が授けられるは、義朝は一族全員を敵にまわしてまで天皇にしたがったのに、あまりにも報いるところがすくないことに再考を求め、信西と論争の挙句にこれを認めさせる。
English: Around that time, Yorinaga, who hovers between life and death, attempts to visit his father Tadazane but Tadazane is afraid of getting involved in the conflict and refuses to meet him
Japanese: その頃、頼長は生死をさまよいながら、父忠実のもとを訪れるが、かかわり合いを恐れた忠実は面会を拒否。
English: Tadazane mourns over this report and laments, questioning why only Yorinaga, the head of the clan, has passed away, despite the belief that no one who is known for fighting well should die.
Japanese: 忠実はこの報告を聞いて嘆き悲しみ、戦で名の知れた人は誰も死んでいないのに、どうして氏の長者である頼長だけが命を落としたのかと慟哭する。
English: Norinaga and others who have sided with Sutoku are captured one after another, and they are tortured and asked where Yorinaga is.
Japanese: 崇徳側についた教長らは次々と捕らえられ、頼長の居場所などを聞き出すために拷問にかけられる。
English: Tameyoshi, who has been fleeing from Sakamoto, Omi Province (Otsu City) to Minoura, catches a fever and ascends Mt. Tendai to become a priest.
Japanese: そして、近江国坂本(大津市)から蓑浦へと逃亡を続けていた為義も熱病にかかり、天台山に登って出家する。
English: Joined by his sons, Tametomo flees to the eastern provinces with a plan to raise an army again, but Tameyoshi refuses his offer due to his old age, so he decides to ask his oldest son, Yoshitomo.
Japanese: 息子たちも合流し、為朝は東国へ逃げのび再帰をはかるべきであると検索するが、為義は老齢などを理由にこれを断り、長男の義朝を頼ることに決める。
English: High officials such as MINAMOTO no Masasada and FUJIWARA no Saneyoshi announce that they will reduce the punishments on the warriors who had sided with Sutoku because no death sentence has been carried out for a long time and they are still in mourning for the Cloistered Emperor Toba.
Japanese: 崇徳側についた武士たちについて、源雅定・藤原実能らの高官たちは、死罪は久しくおこなっていないこと、また鳥羽法皇の服喪中であることを理由に、罪を軽くすることを言上する。
English: However, Shinzei disagrees, saying that if they keep the traitors alive they will create a problem for the future, so he recommends a death sentence in accordance with the law and persuades Goshirakawa to kill Iehiro, Tadamasa and others.
Japanese: しかし、信西は謀反人たちを生かしておけば後々まで禍根を残すと反論し、律のとおりに死罪するべきであると勧め、後白河もこれを認め、家弘・忠正らは斬られる。
English: Tadamasa expects his nephew Kiyomori will save him, but Kiyomori kills his uncle, thinking if he kills his uncle, Yoshitomo also has to kill his father.
Japanese: このうち忠正は甥の清盛が助命してくれることを期待していたが、清盛は自分が伯父を斬れば、義朝も父を斬らざるをえなくなるだろうと陰謀をはたらかせて自ら斬った。
English: Although Yoshitomo has hidden Tameyoshi, he decides to kill his father upon the advice of KAMATA.
Japanese: 為義をかくまっていた義朝だが、鎌田の進言にしたがって勅命のとおりに父を斬ることを決意する。
English: KAMATA and Yoshimichi HATANO take Tameyoshi to Shichi-jo Street (Suzaku Boulevard), telling him that the Emperor's order to kill him has been issued.
Japanese: 鎌田と波多野義通は七条通朱雀大路に為義を連れ出し、死罪の勅命がくだったことを告げる。
English: While he blames Yoshitomo for seeing his father die without any attempt to save him, he is afraid that his son will be blamed by everyone for killing his father, and finally he is killed while chanting Namu-amidabutsu, a (single) sincere call upon the name of Amida, worrying about the future of his young son.
Japanese: 父を見殺しにする義朝を恨み、いっぽうでは彼が父殺しとして世間から非難されることを恐れ、またおさない息子たちの行く末を心配しつつ、最後には南無阿弥陀仏を唱えながら静かに首を打たれる。
English: The punishment handed down to the Minamoto clan is so severe that five younger brothers (including Yorikata) and even four children who haven't celebrated their coming of age yet (including Otowaka) are killed.
Japanese: 源氏に対する処断は過酷を極め、頼方たち弟５人、またいまだ元服さえ迎えていない乙若ら４人の幼子たちまでも処刑することになる。
English: Otowaka is killed while cursing the future of Yoshitomo, who has killed all his relatives.
Japanese: 乙若は身内をことごとく殺す義朝の末路は碌なものにはならないことを呪いつつ、処刑される。
English: Also, Tameyoshi's wife, knowing that her young children are dead, throws herself down the river to death in the excess of her grief, following her husband and children.
Japanese: また、幼いこどもたちが処刑されたことを知った為義の北の方も嘆きのあまりに川面に身を投げて夫やこどもたちの後を追う。
English: Upon hearing of this heartless treatment, Yorinaga's sons, including Moronaga, decide to enter the priesthood, but his grandfather Tadazane dissuades them, saying they should someday avenge their father's death.
Japanese: この酷い仕打ちに、頼長の息子である師長たちは出家することを志すが、いつか再起をはかるべきであるという祖父忠実の言葉に思いとどまる。
English: He suffers the misery of exile, being prevented from taking many servants with him and visiting the grave of his father, the Cloistered Emperor Toba.
Japanese: 多くの供をつれていくことも、父鳥羽法皇の墓前に赴くことも許されず、流罪の憂き目にある。
English: He is to be kept under surveillance even at Sanuki, where he has been exiled, and Sutoku identifies himself with Hikaru Genji, ARIWARA no Narihira and Emperor Junnin (Awaji haitei, or the eliminated emperor), who had once gone into exile, lamenting the harshness of his fate.
Japanese: 流された讃岐でも厳重に監視されることになり、崇徳は光源氏・在原行平・淳仁天皇（淡路廃帝）ら、かつて流離にあった人々に自身を重ね合わせて、我が身の不運を思い嘆く。
English: People are suspicious of this too severe punishment, especially killing Tameyoshi of old age.
