Miyagawa Kozan Vase with Blossoming Plum and Short Poem Walters 491912 Profile, Around the year 950, the emperor received an anonymous poem that made him change his mind about removing an ancient plum tree that had recently died: "Since my lord commands, what can I do but obey; but the nightingales, when they ask about their nests-- whatever can I tell them?"  The character for "nightingale" is perched upon the branch; amazingly, it (and the other characters) consists of clay, inserted into the cut-out wall of the vessel.
