Smi 9 



Zazanza ! 



The sound of the pines of the shore, 

 Zazanza ! 

 Zazanza!] 



There are poets, however, who declare that the 

 feeling produced by the noise of semi depends 

 altogether upon the nervous condition of the 

 listener : 



Mori no se'mi 

 Suzushiki koe ya, 

 Atsuki kog. 



OTSUSHU. 



Sometimes sultry the sound ; sometimes, again, refreshing : 

 The chant of the forest-se'mi accords with the hearer's 

 mood. 



Suzushisa mo 



Atsusa mo semi no 



Tokoro kana ! 



FUHAKU. 



Sometimes we think it cool, the resting-place of the 

 semi; sometimes we think it hot (it is all a matter of 

 fancy). 



Suzushii to 

 Omoe'ba, suzushi 

 Semi no kog. 



GINKO. 



If we think it is cool, then the voice of the se'mi is cool 

 (that is, the fancy changes the feeling).
