| Lit. the plum tree where the warbler dwells. A painting subject inspired by an episode in the 10c tale in OOKAGAMI 大鏡 concerning a daughter of Ki no Tsurayuki 紀貫之 (898?-945?) who refuses to part with a plum tree ume 梅. Emperor Murakami 村上 (r. 946-967) decided to replace the withered plum tree in front of his palace Seiryouden 清涼殿, with a magnificent beautiful red plum tree from Tsurayuki's daughter's garden. When a messenger arrived to take the tree, however, the daughter attached a waka 和歌 to the branch of the plum tree. It reads; The emperor's command should be highly revered, but how shall I answer if the warbler uguisu 鴬 asks where its home yado 宿 is?. The Emperor was so moved that he decided to return the tree. | ||||||
