When Chujounokimi returned to her house, she found the lieutenant come to see his wife. She had already seen him at the Nijou mansion. He was the one who had behaved clumsily in front of Prince Niou. Therefore, he looked stupid one trying to show himself off as a man of taste. "What a miserable person he did look beside the prince. I wonder how he is as a poet." She thought she would put him to the test. She sent him a poem about a bush clover.
