On the fifth day of the Fifth Month, Yugiri brought some friends to Rokujo after a ceremony of equestrian archery at court. They enjoyed some more equestrianism, which was again more varied than that at the palace. The lady of orange blossoms, Tamakazura, and her servants watched from the galleries of the northeast quarter. The women on the southeast quarter were watching from the distance. Genji went out to look at the equestrian ground. Genji often held similar events at his residence, as a demonstration of his power.
