| This chapter deals with the incidents which probably did not happen soon after the incidents in Kiritsubo, and there seems to be an interval of several years between these chapters, but Hikaru Genji's age was not mentioned in this chapter. |
本帖は第1帖である桐壺の後の話を描いているが、すぐ後に続く話ではなくおそらく数年間の時間が経過しているにもかかわらず、本帖の本文中では光源氏の年齢は明記されてはいない。 |
