This lay is defective, or perhaps is an answer to 175.

as long as this stream shall continue to flow?

9-12 verbally almost identical with part of the second lay in K. (p.

1 _tsuginefu_, a m. k. of _yama_; _tsugi-ne-fu_, peak on peak or range
upon range, or _tsugi-ki-no-ne-fu_, abundance of trees (as m. k. of
_shiro_). There is little doubt the former meaning is nearest the
truth. But see K. App. LVII.
16 _ohi name_, carry and put with, take away together.
For _tsuginefu_, _tarachineno_ see List m. k.
