Where is the prepositional phrase?

Kelly TanIn His Gosho, "Reply to the mother of Lord Ueno', the Daishonin wrote about His failing health.
Are the highlighted commas necessary?
No. Certainly not the first. Some authors would use the second comma, though strictly speaking it's not necessary after an introductory prepositional phrase (unless perhaps it is a very long one).

Hi CJ,

Where is the prepositional phrase In In His Gosho, "Reply to the mother of Lord Ueno', the Daishonin wrote about His failing health? Could you explain to me as I cannot see in a preposition in the quotation?

Thank you..

Thank you, CJ.

What a mistake. I didn't see "in". I only look at the part after the open quote marks.
