On the last day of the Third Month there was a large gathering at Rokujo mansion. Kashiwagi had decided to go thinking that he might feel less gloomy to be near to the Third princess. All the court people had also participated in the archery competition. Evening came, a pleasant breeze made the guests even more reluctant to leave the shade of blossoms. A few of them had too much to drink. The two generals, Higeguro and Yugiri, joined the other officers in the archery court. Kashiwagi was lost in thought. From time to time he would look vacantly up at the trees. Yugiri noticed and was worried about him.
