At Seikenji, a tower rises high above a pond on which lotus flowers expand, and the tower facing the sea looms large. Like fishing boats cutting through a fine rain at sea as they return to port, the mission’s procession passes through the rain. The temple’s ume trees look naturally as if they are crawling over the land, while other large trees rise in great number as if to pierce the sky. I approve that such landscaping seems made to provide topics for poems, yet I cannot express the sadness of my travels.
