Japanese Hokku.

japanese Hokku.
"a Year Of japanese Epigrams" Is the
title of a volume Of translations or brier
ucems from that language made by MT.
William n. Porter. and published IN
England. "Hokku" Is a word whose
equivalent it were hard to find In Eng
lish. hence It's necessarily somewhat mar
row rendering in the title. Here are
some specimens Of the 'hokku IN MT
Porter's translation:
These butterflies of ours,
II they could speak. what pretty. dreams
We'd hear about the flowers!
The hokku is used, too, for moraiizins'
AS in this on the fugacity of things:
Life's but heeting day;
The wagtail ficks its tail, ana 10!
our life has passed away.
There is an occasional turn OF humor-
ous satire. as In this:
The midday sky. no DOUBT
One thing that the owl has qui'e
Made up it's mind about.

charges against the management. were
requested to appear before the insur
