あらしふく みむろの山の もみぢ葉は たつたの川の 錦なりけり
舅ハ非道の剣を研 夫ハ邪見の刃を磨く 慕むべし 此貞婦諫を拒む二人が為に 二月の池の氷と消て 水に血しほの紅をながすハ 我名の竜田に因むとやいハん

NOTES:
[1] Much of Bigelow's collection of Asian art was formed during his residence in Japan between 1882 and 1889, although he also made acquisitions in Europe and the United States. Bigelow deposited many of these objects at the MFA in 1890 before donating them to the Museum's collection at later dates.
