Transliteration

  • Jōō 3, on the 6th day of the 7th month (1654): A famous priest, "In-ghen", arrived at Nagasaki from China. His intention was to reform the practice of Buddhism in Japan.[1]
  • Jōō 3, on the 20th day of the 9th month (1654): The emperor died; and he was buried in "Sen-ou-si" Temple on the 15th day of the 10th month.[2]
Can you figure out how to convert these 1834 transliterations into a name of a person and into a place name with a more conventional spelling?
