In the autumn, the Uji princesses prepared for the anniversary of their father's death. Kaoru took care of them as far as he could. Kaoru came himself and wrote out a petition for memorial services. The princesses were spinning thread for decking out the sacred incense. While he had a brush in hand he jotted down a verse: "As braided threads, may our fates be joined, may we be together always."
