Altogether the "Kokin wakashu" consists of 20 scrolls (volumes) and a preface, but the Koya-gire has preserved only scrolls one, two, three, five, eight, nine, eighteen, nineteen, and twenty, and it is thought that the remaining scrolls have not survived to the present day. 『古今和歌集』は全20巻と序からなるが、高野切本の現存する巻は巻一、二、三、五、八、九、十八、十九、二十で、残りの巻は発見されておらず、失われたものと思われる。 |
