描述:
In an open room, overlooking the garden, Honzo, in the presence of his weeping wife & daughter, commits seppuku in atonement for his conduct in stooping to bribe Moranao in favour of his lord, Wakasa, & for interfering when Yenya attacked his enemy, thus indirectly being the cause of reducing his retainers to the status of Ronin, While outside, Yuranosuke, who has now adopted Honzo's disguise goes off to Sakai where he makes his final preparations to attack Moronao. Behind him kneels his wife & son.
