This handscroll consists of three sections; the first is Chinese poetry written by a Ming official, Cai Shiyi, the second is a colophon by the Obaku monk Sokuhi Nyoitsu, and the third is another colophon by the modern scholar Hakuju Yoshin.
The colophon by Sokuhi Nyoitsu was written between 1665 and 1668 while he was living in the Fukujuji Temple that he founded in present-day Fukuoka Prefecture.
His colophon had been translated:
The hand of Master Cai moves with heavenly power;
The energy and refinement of his brush is a wondrous treasure.
Second day of spring.
Written by Sokuhi of [Mt.] Koju.
May a thousand blessings follow
Translation by Fumiko E. Cranston from Extraordinary Persons, Vol. 1 (1999), p. 214.
Sokuhi Nyoitsu (Chinese: Jifei Ruyi) was a master calligrapher and known as one of Obaku no Sanpitsu (Three Brushes of Obaku)together with Ingen Ryuki and Mokuan Shoto.
