This paper is aimed of the analysis and its consideration on “Ujishui Monogatari” Vol.11-7 comparing with “Konjaku Monogatarishu” Vol.16-30. “Ujishui Monogatari” is a collection of narratives written around the beginning of the 13th century. “Konjaku Monogatarishu” is a collection of Buddhist stories collected as being established in the second half of the 11th century. As a result, first, “Konjaku Monogatarishu” Vol.16-30 is described as ‘one’s fate(宿世)’, a Buddhist term. However, “Ujishui Monogatari” Vol.11-7 does not describe it. Next, it is focused on the differences between the end-of-speech words added at the end of the narrative. Comparing with the analogous stories of “Konjaku Monogatarishu” Vol.16-30, so that, “Konjaku Monogatarishu” Vol.16-30 has an instructive slogan at the end of the story. On the other hand, “Ujishui Monogatari” Vol.11-7 completely lacks the doctrinal comments. From the accumulation of previous research, the dream at that time was thought to be a means to receive revelation from the outside world. In harmony with the belief of the dream at that time and the attitude of aggressive women, we are working on the development of the story of “Ujishui Monogatari” Vol.11-7. It seemed that the description intention of the editor of “Ujishui Monogatari” Vol.11-7 would be not a story of honoring Buddhist thought, but a story which he wanted to tell of a poor woman who gained the happiness of life getting a long-term wished magic cloth through the revelation in dreams.
