Her keepsake was a crystal ball and she predicted "If you do not forget me even after you return to Japan, take the ball to Hatsuse-dera Temple and carry out the Buddhist memorial service of the Twenty-First Day, then we can meet again," and she let her koto fly away and died like the dew. |
彼女の形見は水晶の玉、日本に帰っても私を忘れないなら初瀬寺に玉を持って三七日の法を行え、再会できる、と予言し、琴を天外に飛び去らせ、自分も露のように死んだ。 |
