Once she had gone to a temple called Isonokami and, when it grew dark, she decided to return home with the dawn and stayed the night; someone said, ‘Henjō is here,’ so she sent him this to see what his reaction would be.
岩の上旅寢をすればいと寒し苔の衣を我に貸さなん
| iFa no uFe tabine wo sureba ito samusi koke no koromo wo ware ni kasanan |
Atop this crag I am to spend a traveller’s night; So cold! Your robes of moss, Won’t you lend me? |
Ono no Komachi
