Yasuhiro's poemおさまれる御代の ためしに引かへて 子日の松に千世を契らんOsamareru Midaino Tameshini Hikaete Nenohinomatsuni Chiwowo ChigiranIn exchange for the precedent of the peaceful era in which we live, we pledge eternity (very long years) to the pine trees of the rat's day. Explanatory notes of a work"Pulling small pine / Komatsu-hiki" is a kind of game played by aristocrats who go out and pull out small pine trees on the first day of the rat in the New Year. It was customary to love this "pine of the rat's day" to pray for longevity. It is difficult to identify Yasuhiro because of the lack of information about him, but this poem by Rengetsu was composed in response to a poem by Yasuhiro. The two poems have in common the words "子の日 Nenohi / rat's day," "松 Matsu / pine" and "千代 Chiyo / long. 大田垣蓮月 Otagaki Rengetsu (1791-1875)A female poet from the end of the Edo period to the beginning of the Meiji period. Born in Kyoto. She was adopted by 大田垣光古 Otagaki Teruhisa, samurai who served at Chion-in Temple, when she was only 10 days old. She later married 望古 Mochihisa, the adopted son of Teruhisa. She and Mochihisa had three children, all of whom died at an early age. She also lost her husband, Mochihisa soon. At the age of 33, she lost her second husband, 古肥 Hisatoshi. She and Hisatoshi had one daughter, but the daughter and Mochiko died in 1823. She shaved her head and took the name "Rengetsuni / Nun Rengetsu". After that, Rengetsu moved from place to place and was known as "Moving house Rengetsu" because of her love of moving. After her children died, she lost her father at the age of 42 and lived a life of poverty and solitude. After her father's death, she made her own pottery with waka poems carved with nails, which was called "Rengetsu-yaki". Rengetsu-yaki was so popular as a souvenir of Kyoto, but the sales were given to the poor. He loved 富岡鉄斎 Tomioka Tessai (1837-1924) as if he were his own child. He died at the age of 85, 1875 at 神光院 Jinkoin. She excelled in waka poetry, and was also skilled in calligraphy, painting, naginata, and Go. In waka poetry, she wrote many feminine and delicate epic poems, and was good at writing plain epic poems. Rengetsu was also known for his good looks. It is said that some men approached her because of her beauty which never waned even as she grew older. There is an anecdote that she deliberately pulled out her teeth to ruin her beauty and protected herself from temptation.
