This piece belongs to the genre of jiuta, which was and is cultivated mainly in the old capital, Kyoto. It is an arrangement of an older piece from the 17th century and is considered to be historically important, since it represents the earliest form of Tegotomono, in which the vocal sections are separated from one another by virtuosic instrumental interludes. The title means “The Old Bleaching (Piece)". The text illustrates the bleaching of fabric in the Uji River near Kyoto, presenting for the most part a description of the surrounding landscape, the mountains and the waves on the river, in which the moon is reflected.

Only at the start and finish does the text touch on the actual activity of bleaching.
