泉涌寺勸緣疏 俊●（上艾-乂+下仍）
日本
日僧俊芿五十四歲時所書。俊芿為平安（794～1185）末鎌倉（1185～1333）初高僧，於正治元年（1199）入宋，修天台、律宗，長達十三年，期間嘗見當地寺院宏偉莊嚴，歸國後決意仿造中國建築興建泉涌寺，此卷即為建寺所書之勸緣疏。一九五二年指定為日本國寶。
該卷書風蓋自黃庭堅而來，其長畫開張，行筆勁利迅捷，牽帶使轉氣力剛強而無一懈怠，已是書家規模。比之黃庭堅，雖緊結處有所不及，但神氣盈卷，文辭又佳，是書文兼善之作。
參考釋文：物論營福徧勗唱出／西乾之大毗尼結緣／草靡人人還住本性／之佛家隨喜風／從頭頭燕居天真之／智殿／承久元年十月 日疏／幹緣比丘／都勸緣新入宋學法比丘 俊芿
