The Fourteenth Amendment (Section 1):

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. 

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

In bold, you will find the words that refer to states and restrict them from violating an individuals unenumerated and/or enumerated constitutional rights.

Plain, ordinary language. - You dislike what it says? - Tough.
But to claim you can't understand only raises doubts as to your own abilities.

The only thing in that paragraph that could even come close to referring to the Bill of Rights is the privileges-and-immunities clause. But "privileges and immunities" are not rights. And it's very easy to show that it did not refer to the BOR, because right after it it says, "nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law," which was lifted right out of the BOR. So if the P&I clause was intended to comprise the BOR, why was there any need to add on the due-process clause? It would have already been understood.
