Inscription:

Chichibu Junrei No. 24 Mt. Hakusan God 's color has changed, and the snowy white is still slippery. Vairocana Buddha of Koshi no Taicho / By imperial command, Mt. Hakusan of Kaga was brought to this place / The principal image of auction is Amaterasu Omikami / It is called Misaku / It is said that it is a legend / Even if there is something / Vairocana / This The sun shines / There is no foundation / But the old days / A prostitute in Koigami's mouth / Various good medicines for sickness / Even though it's been a long time since I've used it / A monk in Chichibu If you come to practice every day, give me a toothpick, and give me a toothpick./Believe in the Kannon of Mt. I'm so happy that I don't forget to send my guests back / I don't forget to take that toothpick to my mouth / I'm sorry, but I'm still at this temple.

Condition: Very good, not backed, some dirt.
