A priest enters, and announces that his name is Giyôkei, and thatbefore he retired from the world he held high rank at Court. Herelates how Tsunémasa, in his childhood the favourite of the Emperor, died in the wars by the western seas. During his lifetime the Emperorgave him a lute, called Sei-zan, "the Azure Mountain"; this lute athis death was placed in a shrine erected to his honour, and at hisfuneral music and plays were performed during seven days within thepalace, by the special grace of
...the Emperor. The scene is laid at theshrine. The lonely and awesome appearance of the spot is described. Although the sky is clear, the wind rustles through the trees like thesound of falling rain; and although it is now summer-time, themoonlight on the sand looks like hoar-frost. All nature is sad anddowncast. The ghost appears, and sings that it is the spirit ofTsunémasa, and has come to thank those who have piously celebrated hisobsequies. No one answers him, and the spirit vanishes, its voicebecoming fainter and fainter, an unreal and illusory vision hauntingthe scenes amid which its life was spent.
