On the night of the 26th, as the insurgent forces felt danger even at Onjo-ji Temple, Yorimasa headed for Kofuku-ji Temple in Nanto (Nara) together with Prince Mochihito, but the prince fell off from the horse out of fatigue during a retreat in the night, and they stopped at Uji Byodoin Temple to rest on their way. 25日夜、園城寺も危険になり、頼政は以仁王とともに南都(奈良)興福寺へ向かうが、夜間の行軍で以仁王が疲労して落馬し、途中の宇治平等院で休息を取った。 |
