Suden and others concluded that two phrases in the inscription included curses on the Tokugawa Family; One was the phrase "国家安康 (State's Peace)" which severed the imina (real personal name) of Ieyasu (家康), and the other "君臣豊楽 (State's Peace and Health) which prayed for the prosperity of the Toyotomi (豊臣) Family.
崇伝らは、文中に「国家安康」「君臣豊楽」とあったものを、「国家安康」は家康の諱を分断し、「君臣豊楽」は豊臣家の繁栄を願い徳川家に対する呪詛が込められていると断定した。
