Here we go:

東都八景𮜣塔落雁 - Toto hakkei Kan'eiji Tō rakugan
This surimono showing a bunch of Geese descending into Lake where there is the pagoda 𮜣塔 (Kan'eiji Tō) ,but not Shinobatsu 忍岡 lake as people use to know .At least this is what I could took of my broken nihongo.

Anyone has any idea about the other kanjis from this poem?
Thank you in advance

東都八景　Eight Views of the Eastern Capital
篠筈落雁　Shinobazu*, Descending Geese

松かせも琴巻のしらへにかよひけん
琴柱に並ふ池のかりかも
Matsukaze mo kotomaki no shirabe ni kayoiken
Kotobashira ni narabu ike no karikamo

Even the koto strings rustle at the sound of the wind blowing through the pines
The geese line up like the bridges of koto

Unfortunately, the outlines of the characters in the part before the poet's name are blurred beyond recognition,
....舎 ...sha
千朱文成　Senshu Bunsei (Fuminari)

* Modern version of Shinobazu-ike　篠筈池 　→不忍池 in the Ueno district of Tokyo.

With regards,
