Quatrain of Sen Rikyu



Sen Rikyu - Japanese Tea Master
(redefined the tea ceremony - 1522)



To such extent I drink my tea,
along with frumenty in such deft
manner,

I salute thy foraging for leaves
and squeeze out liquid by turning a
spanner.

I have organized the ritual of sipping,
the washing of my spirits to be
purified,

For it is the rite of drinking, and
taste for sweetness, that doth
collide.
