Description
English: Poem 67 -- Fujiwara no Tadaie offers his arm to a lady-in-waiting. She declines with a verse. The image shows Tadaie outside a screen, and the Lady Suwo is just inside, hidden from sight:
If I had made thy proffered arm
A pillow for my head
For but the moment's time, in which
A summer's dream had fled,
What would the world have said? -- translation by Porter
