Text p.271:

707. OTO TACHIBANA HIME Wife of Yamato Dake, who, to appease the Sea God, had her mats thrown into the sea and jumped on them, thus according to a fanciful version, taking her revenge upon her husband, who some time earlier had told her that a woman’s place was on the mats, not following her lord to the wars. The episode took place between Kazuma and Sagami.

The Gods, who had been offended by a jeering remark of Yamato Dake, were appeased by the sacrifice of his wife, and when the warrior returned and contemplated the sea from the top of the Usui Toge, he exclaimed, in recollection of his wife's devotion, Azuma wa ya (O! my wife), from which came the name of Azuma, given to the eastern coast provinces of Japan. It is usual to call her Tachibana Hime: the addition of Oto means “Younger.”
