Ki no Tomonori in the Hyakunin Isshu.

Ki no Tomonori (紀友則 ki (no) tomonori, c.850–c.904) was an early Heian waka poet of the court, a member of the sanjūrokkasen (the thirty six poetic sages). He was a compiler of the kokinshū, though he certainly did not see it to completion as the anthology includes a eulogy to him composed by Ki no Tsurayuki, his colleague in the compilation effort. Ki no Tomonori is the author of several poems in the kokinshū, and a few of his poems appear in later official collections. A collection of his poems from various sources appeared as the tomonori shū.
