Poem:

餘所などに花を贈らば、其の花は開き過ぎしを遣らぬ物也
yoso nado ni hana wo okuraba, sono hana wa hiraki sugishi wo yaranu mono nari
Flowers in full bloom;
An unwelcome gift to the
Host of chanoyu –
How should one hide their distaste
When the alcove is wilting?

水指に手桶出さば、手は橫に、前の蓋取り先に重ねよ

Should a teoke
Be used for the water jar
Orientate the
Handle side-to-side and rest
The front lid on the far lid
