Vita Sexualis on Honchō Gushō Shinshi: “I borrowed from Eiichi and read the Seisetsurō Shishō, and then I read the Honchō Gushō Shinshi. Then, because new pieces by Sankei were coming out, I went to Asakusa and bought the Kagetsu Shinshi and read that too; the two of us made poems and wrote little pieces in Chinese for fun.
