"Baishoron" (literally, the argument about Japanese plum and pine; a Japanese historical epic written in the mid-14th century) depicts as follows: Chikamitsu gave a fatal blow with his sword to Sadanori, who fought back to behead Chikamitsu before breathing his last. 『梅松論』によれば、親光は貞載に斬りつけて重傷を負わせたが返り討ちにあって首を取られ、貞載もこの傷が元でまもなく死亡したとする。 |
