Edition: The present copyseems to be maki 下 of Amida hadaka monogatari あみたはたか物語 (see 16107.h.10). In the bottom left corner of fol. 15a appears a fragment of a printed mokki such as often framed the name of the publisher Shōkai 松會. The present copy is therefore provisionally identified as maki 下 of the Shōkai edition of Amida hadaka monogatari, published c. Kanbun 6 (1666).
Contents: A kana-zōshi work in the form of questions put by Ozasa no Tametada 小笹爲忠 to the monk Ikkyū 一休 about Buddhist doctrines concerning Amida Buddha, and Ikkyū's explanation expressed in Simple language.
