In spring, the Third Month: a poem composed on an imperial visit to the Naniwa Palace.
大夫は御狩に立たし娘子らは赤裳裾引く淸き濱びを
masurawo pa mikari ni tatasi wotomera pa aka mo susobiku kiyoki pamabï wo |
The sturdy men Leave for the hunt; The maidens Trail the hems of scarlet skirts Across the clean swept beach. |
The above poem is by Akahito, Lord Yamabe.
