Praying for Rain Komachi / Kuniyoshi
雨乞小町 歌川国芳画 年代不詳
七小町のひとつ。雨乞い小町。
A legend about Ono no Komachi: she ends a drought by offering the following poem as a prayer for rain, “It is only reasonable since this is the Land of the Rising Sun for the sun to shine. Nevertheless it is also called ama-ga-shita” (both 天 [heaven] and 雨 [rain] reads ame/ama).
