これは「いすかの嘴の」という浄瑠璃の言葉どおりに行うという意味である。

The above means to perform in accordance with the words of Joruri, "isuka's beak" (discrepancy as in the beak of Common Crossbill).

嫁入り道具、行器、長持犬張子、小袖箪笥の幾さおも、命ながらへ居るならば、一世一度の送り物、五丁七丁続く程」の華やかにも悲しい床の浄瑠璃に合わせ、定高は雛鳥の首を雛人形とともに川に流し大判事に受け取らせる。

Sadaka floats the head of Hinagiku with Hina-ningyo (dolls and miniature instruments displayed at the Girls' Festival) in the river to send it to Daihanji, while gorgeous yet sad Joruri (dramatic narrative chanted to a shamisen accompaniment) is played on the musicians' stage; it chants, 'marriage furniture, food box, container, papier-mache dog, and many chests (these are all the instruments included in Hina-ningyo). If she was alive, they would have been real presents once in life, lined up for five or seven cho (distance unit; a cho is about 109 m).'
