冬の大原野へ行幸。 主上の鳳輦に、親王・上達部ら多数が鷹狩姿で供奉。鷹匠も従う。

A winter imperial visit to Oharano; many princes and high nobles in hawking dress attend the Emperor's palanquin, along with falconers.

鷹狩り不参の源氏に、帝より枝につけた唯一対が贈られる。

To Genji, who did not join the hawking, the Emperor sends a pair of fish attached to a branch.

玉鬘の裳着にあたって諸方より祝い物届く。末摘花よりの古風な祝いに添えられた歌を見て源氏赤面する。

Gifts of congratulation arrive from many quarters for Tamakazura's initiation; seeing the poem attached to Suetsumuhana's old-fashioned gift, Genji blushes.

冬、冷泉帝の大原野行幸が行われ、行列を見物した玉鬘は冷泉帝の神々しい美しさに魅了される。源氏は玉鬘を宮中へ尚侍として出仕させる計画を進め、実父・内大臣に玉鬘が夕顔の遺児であることをついに明かす。年が明けて二月、六条院で盛大な裳着の儀式が執り行われ、内大臣が腰結の役を務めて涙の親子再会を果たす。

Emperor Reizei journeys on an imperial progress to Oharano, leaving Tamakazura awestruck by his radiant elegance. Genji arranges for Tamakazura to enter court as Palace Attendant and finally reveals the truth to To no Chujo. In the new year, Tamakazura celebrates her coming-of-age ceremony at Rokujo-in, with To no Chujo tying the ceremonial apron cords in a joyful paternal reunion.
