Death poem of Hōjō Ujiteru

Third son of Hōjō Ujiyasu. He took over the name of the Ōishi, a powerful local family of Musashi, made Yui Castle and then Takiyama Castle his base, and later built Hachiōji Castle and moved there. Known for his courage, in Eiroku 12 he held Takiyama Castle against Takeda Shingen's great army and pursued the retreating Takeda to the Mimase Pass. He also handled relations with the Oda and Tokugawa and with the Date and Ashina, and supported his brother Ujimasa as a pillar of Hōjō war and diplomacy. In the Odawara campaign he argued for war and shut himself up in Odawara Castle. His Hachiōji Castle, left without its lord, was stormed in a single day on the 23rd day of the sixth month by the great army of Maeda Toshiie and Uesugi Kagekatsu, and many of the women in the castle are said to have taken their own lives. After the surrender he and his brother Ujimasa were made to bear the blame for the war, and took their own lives.
