Poem
炉のうちは炭斗瓢柄の火箸
陶器香合ねり香と知れ

ro no uchi wa sumitori fukube e no hibashi tōki kōgō nerikō to shire

A dried gourd carries
charcoal for tea at the hearth,
Rolled incense is held
by a quaint case made of earth,
wood-handle chopsticks prove their worth.

Poem
60. 燈火に油をつがば多くつげ、客にあかかざる心得と知れ
tomoshibi ni yu o tsugaba ?ku tsuge, kyaku ni akazaru kokoroe to shire

Add liberally oil to your night lamp for tea,
For should the lamp fade and your guests be left in dark,
how impoverished the scene be.
