Question
While mourning an imperial consort, a man writes a poem about how these things appear like the “dark folds of a mourner’s dress” in a chapter named for a “rack” or “wreath” of these things. These material things partly title a novel in which a Buddhist disciple marries eight reincarnated fairies before waking from a dream. These things partly name a “missing” section that may have encouraged readers to “flee the world” in favor of monastic life, per the study Seeds in the Heart. They aren’t bell crickets, but (*) Arthur Waley’s translation omits that chapter named for these things, after which the “transition” and “Uji” chapters depict Niou and Kaoru’s feud. These things title an oddly-formatted chapter in an eleventh-century novel that likely signifies the hero’s death. For 10 points, name these things into which the hero is implied to “vanish” in a blank chapter from The Tale of Genji. ■END■
