Now is the time when people will look at you and place you at the edge." ③ When the bow is drawn, the tip and tip of the bow come close to each other, so it refers to "yoru." ※Man'yoshu (late 8th century) 14.3489 " Azusayumi, in the thick forest of the Yorano mountain, I set up my sister and sweep her sleeping place ." ④ The bow curves, so it refers to "kaeru." ※Nidohonkinyo (1124-25) Koishita "The Azusa bow returns, and there is nothing to compare it to in my thoughts of tomorrow. (Fujiwara no Kensuke)" ⑤ When an arrow is shot, it makes a sound, so it is used in the words "ya" and " oto ". ※Manyo (late 8th century) 2.207 "When the messenger of Tamazusa said, "I heard the Azusa bow 's voice, and I knew how to say it."
