みなもとのむねゆき ?-939

A grandson of Emperor Koko who was made a commoner with the Minamoto name in 894, but served in a number of provincial governorships and never attained higher than the junior 4th rank. He seems to have been recognized as a poet though, appearing in the 寛平御時后宮歌合. He has 6 poems in the KKS, 3 in the GSS, and 5 in later collections. He is one of the 36 poetic immortals.
