Grass script sanjimei

Hi All.  The last character of this mei appears to be "shi" to me, but I can't make out the rest.  Just in case any of you can read it off the top of your head, I thought I would post it.  Otherwise, it will be going brute force through the kanji books.  Cheers, Bob

I doubt that this one has stumped the field - any suggestions?

撫柳斎　Buryūsai  - but I can find no artist using this name. 

or maybe

楊柳斎　Yōryūsai (there is an artist using this name, but the first character looks a bit different). 

 

I'm nearly certain the last one is 斎, which is common enough in gō. The middle one is a bit more cryptic - I haven't completely convinced myself that it is ryū (柳). Actually looks a bit like gonben (言) as written in grassscript, but again, nothing jumps out at me. The first one is even more cryptic.

Thanks for the heroic efforts Steve!
