The ``Takuboku Ishikawa and Bokusui Wakayama Friendship Monument'' is engraved with the works of two of Takuboku's friends, Bokusui, with whom he was most forgiving in his later years and with whom he shared his final moments. ``I just want to run away from the classroom window and go to the castle ruins alone to sleep'' (Takuboku Ishikawa) and ``Leaning against the old stone wall of the castle ruins, I can't hear the distant sound of the waves'' (Bokusui Wakayama).
