Restore the lost fish-hook to Ho- deri. If he is still wroth with you, bring forth the tide-flowing jewel, and the waters shall cover him. If he asks your forgiveness, bring forth the tide-ebbing jewel, and it shall be well with him. " Ho-wori left the Palace of the Ocean- Bed, and was carried swiftly to his own land.
54 THE PALACE OF THE OCEAN-BED As he set foot on the shore, he ungirded his sword, and tied it round the neck of the sea-dragon. Then he said: "Take this to the Sea- King as a tok...en of my love and gratitude. " 55 Autumn and Spring A FAIR maiden lay asleep in a rice-field. The sun was at its height, and she was weary. Now a god looked down upon the rice-field. He knew that the beauty of the maiden came from within, that it mirrored the beauty of heavenly dreams. He knew that even now, as she smiled, she held converse with the spirit of the wind or the flowers.
