Especially, it is noteworthy that Issa wrote haiku relating to winter, 'Tomokakumo anatamakaseno toshinokure' (After doing your best, in the end, you should put everything into the hands of Buddha) and haiku relating to a new year, 'Medetasamo chukurainari oragaharu' (A new year has come and people are very happy about it, but I do not feel like celebrating New Year's like them), and responding to these Issa's haiku, Seigetsu made 'Medetasamo hitomakasenari harunotabi' (A new year has come and people are happy about it, but I do not care about it, I'm just enjoying my travels).
特に、一茶の冬の句「ともかくもあなた任せの年の暮」、新年句「目出度さもちう位也おらが春」、に対して、井月が「目出度さも人任せなり旅の春」を残している点が注目される。
