Genji sometimes visited the Third Princess, the Akashi lady, and the lady of orange blossom, which gave him a vicarious hint of Murasaki. There still seemed to be one lady to whom he was not indifferent. That was Chujo, who had worked for Murasaki. It was about the time of the Kamo festival; when he came in she was having a nap. Genji said, picking up a sprig of hollyhock, "It is so long since I have had anything to do with it", to the lady, who made haste to put herself in order.
