Note: Tsukurimono: Omoni (heavy burden): Make a color as shown on the print with red brocade and
 tied it with a rope made by dark blue paper . Kasezue: A wooden cane with a sideways grip on the top
of the cane. Kasezue in this play is wrapped in white bōji (a strip of cloth) . Kashira: white wig for
Nochi-shite. Shikishi: Front shikishi depicts chrysanthemums since Mae-shite is a master at growing
chrysanthemums. Back shikishi depicts small grid pattern of the kitsuke (short-sleeved kimono).
