Right

Shimotsuke
The Left’s poem has no faults worth pointing out; the poem of the Right’s ‘morning sunlight draping scarlet light across the sleeves of haze’ is overly gorgeous, I think, while the Left seems perfectly beautiful, so it should win.

Left (Win)
春の夜のあくる霞の立田山これや神代の衣なるらん
haru no yo no akuru kasumi no tatsutayama kore ya kamiyo no koromo naruran At a spring night’s

Both Left and Right are difficult to tell apart, yet the Left’s ‘clothing of the Age of Gods’ would seem to be superior.
