From the poetry match at Tsurayuki’s house in the Second Month, Tengyō 2 – The end of summer.

むかしより思ふ心はみな月のみそぎの神ぞ空にしるらん

mukashi yori omou kokoro wa minazuki no misogi no kami zo sora ni shiruran

For a long time now, Yearning has filled my heart: In the Sixth Month The purifying deity Seems to know it well, within the skies.
