On making a pilgrimage to the Hōrin Temple, he went there and composed this, before the grave of Major Counsellor Toshi’ie in Sagano.
さらでだに露けきさがの野べにきて昔のあとにしをれぬるかな
sarade dani tsuyukeki saga no nobe ni kite mukashi no ato ni shiorenuru kana | Even had I not to Dew-drenched Saga’s Meadows come, The remnants of bygone days Would leave me drenched! |
Supernumerary Middle Counsellor Toshitada
