Even in Nara, / the capital that became / an old village, / the colors aren't changing:

Just for fun, while I'm at it, here's an ebook version (.epub format) of books 1-2 of the Kokinshu. Partly created for the practice at large-scale manipulation of nearly repetitive chunks of HTML coding (hello, regular expressions -- I've missed you) and creating e-books. But mostly for the fun of it.

Could anyone who downloads this let me know whether the internal links are working for you? I'm getting maddeningly inconsistent results in testing.

Also, anyone interested in a .mobi/Kindle format?

... the flowers are still blooming.
