English: Shunmoji married Tadataka HOSOKAWA, the legitimate son of Tadaoki HOSOKAWA, in 1597, but was 'divorced from the Hosokawa family in 1600 for a certain reason (which was she did not commit suicide with the mother-in-law, Garasha HOSOKAWA)' (according to "Hosokawakeki menkoshuroku" (Records of the Hosokawa family)), and later remarried Nagatsugu MURAI, the son of Nagayori MURAI, who was from one of the eight Maeda Kaga families, and deeply trusted by Matsu (Hoshunin) (There are different theories on the timing: see 'Mystery about the timing of remarriage').
Japanese: 春香院は、1597年に細川忠興の嫡男細川忠隆と結婚するが、「故あって（義母細川ガラシャとともに自害しなかったことを指す）、慶長五年（1600年）に細川家から離縁。」（細川家記綿考輯録より）され、のち前田加賀八家のひとつでまつ（芳春院）の信頼が深い村井長頼の子村井長次に再嫁した（時期には異説がある。再婚時期の謎。）。
English: After remarrying, Shunmoji did not have a biological child with Nagatsugu MURAI, but adopted Nagamitsu (who was in fact, the child of Nagataka ODA, and the grandchild of Urakusai ODA), and after the death of Nagatsugu in 1613, she took the tonsure and entered the priesthood, and had a peaceful life in the Murai family under the Buddhist name Shunmoji for the latter half of her life.

Japanese: また、村井家石高は16,500石余で経済的にも恵まれており、春香院は村井長次死後に能登領熊甲神社の再建などもしている（岩沢愿彦著『前田利家』など）。

English: It is believed that Shunmoji remarried in 1605 ('Records of the Murai family' in the "Maedashi senkishu" - War records of the Maeda clan), but it is likely that the actual time that she joined the Murai family in Kaga was around 1611.
Japanese: 春香院の再嫁は1605年とされる（『前田氏戦記集』中の「村井家伝」）が、実際に加賀の村井家に入った時期は1611年頃であった可能性が高い。
English: After being divorced from the Hosokawa clan in 1600, Shunmoji lived together with disinherited Tadataka in Kyoto, and gave birth to a boy Kumachiyo, who died young, as well as Tokuhime (later, a wife of the minister of the left Saneharu SAIONJI), Yoshihime, Fukuhime (later, a wife of Michinori KUZE, the first generation of the Kuze family, a court noble in Kyoto), and Marihime (died young).

English: In other words, in spite of being divorced from the Hosokawa family, Shunmoji did not separate from Tadataka (who was called Kyumu NAGAOKA, after being disinherited from the Hosokawa family in 1604) until 1611.

English: In June of the Jinshin year under the Oriental zodiac system (672), Oama no oji rose in arms against Otomo no oji (Prince Otomo, the Emperor Kobun) who then sent a messenger to Wakyo (倭京, also read as Yamato no miyako) to organize an army.
Japanese: 壬申の年（672年）の6月に大海人皇子が挙兵すると、近江宮にいた大友皇子（弘文天皇）は倭京に使者を派遣して軍を編成させた。
English: At this time, however, OTOMO no Fukei, having made up his mind to work for Oama no oji, started to collect soldiers to raise an army and established secret communication with SAKANOUE no Kumake who was one of the Wakyo's rusutsukasa (guards of the city) then and with twelve clans of ayanoatai (漢直) at the same time.
Japanese: しかしこのとき、大海人皇子側につくことを決めた大伴吹負は挙兵をめざして人数を集め、倭京の留守司の一人坂上熊毛とともに、一二の漢直に内応を求めた。
English: On June 29, a person called HADA no Kuma rode a horse, being disguised as a messenger, to the camp of Otomo no oji and spread a false news saying, 'Takechi no miko (Prince Takechi) arrived from Fuwa (Prince Takechi's base in Mino Province, the southern part of Gifu Prefecture).'
Japanese: 6月29日、まず秦熊が使者のふりをして馬に乗って馳せ、「高市皇子が不破から来た」と誤報を言った。
English: Then OTOMO no Fukei rode into Wakyo with several dozens of mounted warriers and easily captured the right of command over the place, owing also to the betrayal of Kumake and various atai (直) clan people.
Japanese: それから数十騎で乗り込むと、熊毛と諸々の直が内応したため、吹負は難なく指揮権を奪取した。
English: As SAKANOUE no Okina was one of the same 'atai' clans as Kumake, it is highly likely that he was one of those who colluded with Kumake then and there.
Japanese: 坂上老も熊毛と同族で「直」の一人であるから、ここで内応した一人である可能性が高い。
English: On attaining victory, OTOMO no Fukei sent messengers to Oama no oji who was then in the Fuwanomiya Palace to report on the success.
Japanese: ことが成功してから、大友吹負は不破宮にいた大海人皇子に報告の使者を派遣した。
English: They performed their duties successfully, but no records have been found on the actions of SAKANOUE no Okina in the subsequent wars.
Japanese: 彼等は無事に役目を果たしたが、そのあとの戦争での坂上老の行動については記録がない。
English: SAMI no Sukunamaro is known to have returned to Yamato area (Nara Prefecture) to continue to fight, and so SAKANOUE no Okina may have done the same, but there is a chance that he went to some other place.
Japanese: 佐味宿名麻呂は戻って倭の方面で戦ったから、老もそうしたかもしれないが、別の方面にいた可能性もある。
English: Yamato no ayanoatai people were awarded a kabane of muraji (連) on June 25, 682.

English: It is possible to presume that the SAKANOUE clan was among such people, and that their kabane had changed from atai to muraji, and then to imiki.
Japanese: 坂上氏もこの中にあって直から連へ、また忌寸へと変わったと推定できる。
English: The honorable deed begins with managing whatever comes from of you and the importance of recognizing the great achievements shall be stressed through the coming generations.
Japanese: 「図勲の義は前を修めることから始まり、創功の賞は歴代これを重んじる。

Japanese: しかし、孫の坂上是則や曾孫の坂上望城は都に住し、歌人として名を残しており、当道の子孫は検非違使大尉や明法博士など法律に関する分野で活躍した。

Japanese: 一方、当道は、父あるいは伯父の広野以来の坂上氏の重要な拠点でもある摂津国住吉郡平野庄（大阪市平野区）の経営にも従事していたようである。
English: According to a legend handed down in Kumata-jinja Shrine and so on in the area, Masamichi "lived in Hiranosho of Settsu Province, its kaihatsu ryoshu (a local notable who actually developed the land) being SAKANOUE no Hirono, where he succeeded to the property of the SAKANOUE clan after Hirono and established Gion-sha Shrine [present Kumata-jinja Shrine] enshrining Susanoo no mikoto."
