Summary

Description
English: Princess Hachikazuki and Prince Saisho pledge their love. Description: The young lord Saisho gave to the princess a boxwood pillow and a bamboo flute in testimony of his fidelity. They exchanged poems expressing their affection for each other. Princess’s Poem: “You came/ with boxwood pillow and flute/ I bind myself/ to you forever.” Saisho’s Poem: “For thousands of years/ I will be with you/ With bamboo flute and boxwood pillow/ this pledge will never end.” Published in the middle of the Edo period (18th century), this is a booklet for children that consists mainly of drawings. It is called an akahon (red book) because of the color of its front cover. Hachikazuki hime (The bowl-bearer princess) is a story that was written in the Muromachi period (14th-16th centuries).
