 しかし極楽の蓮池の蓮は、少しもそんな事には頓着(とんじゃく)致しません。その玉のような白い花は、御釈迦様の御足(おみあし)のまわりに、ゆらゆら萼(うてな)を動かして、そのまん中にある金色の蕊(ずい)からは、何とも云えない好(よ)い匂が、絶間(たえま)なくあたりへ溢(あふ)れて居ります。極楽ももう午(ひる)に近くなったのでございましょう。

(大正七年四月十六日)

English

Yet, lotus on the lotus pond in the Buddhist paradise do not pay attention at all to things like this. Those ball-looking white flowers were waving their calyxes around Buddha's feet. Stamens in the middle of those flowers were making indescribably good smells everywhere around them. The Buddhist paradise must have been facing noon.


(16th, April, 1918)
