"It's this way, Auntie: We think I mean we're afraid that you're getting along so in life getting so old that we " "Who say Ise gittin' ole?" demanded Aunt Sharley, and she jerked her hands out of the dough she was kneading. "We both think so I mean we all think so," corrected Emmy Lou. "Who do you mean by we all? Does you mean dat young Mistah Winslow, Esquire, late of de North?"
"No; she is my mother," said Mary, "and you must not speak in that tone of mamma." "I'll speak in any tone I p'ease," replied Diana. "Ise not going to be fwightened. But what do she mean by punish? Who will she punish?" "She will punish you," replied Mary. "Were you never punished?" "Never. I don't know what it means. Is it nasty?" "Oh, isn't it!" said Philip, who came up at that moment.
In a shrine at Suzuka-yama in Ise, to which point the insurgents pushed southward before Tamuramaro took the field, there used to be preserved a box, obviously of foreign construction, said to have been left there by the "Eastern Barbarians;" and in the Tsugaru district of the modern Mutsu province, relics exist of an extensive fortress presenting features not Japanese, which is conjectured to have been the basis of the Tatar invaders.
"No, honey, I isn't sick," said the old woman; "but somehow or other I don't keer to git up. Ise mighty comfurt'ble jist as I is." "But you ought to have your breakfast," said Kate. "What is this basin of water doing on the foot of your bed?" "Oh, don't 'sturb dat ar tin basin," said Aunt Matilda. "Dat's to ketch der rain. Dar's a hole right ober de foot o' de bed."
Imperial envoys were regularly sent after each great victory to carry the good tidings to the Sun Goddess at her great shrine at Ise. Not there alone, but at the other principal Shinto shrines throughout the land, the cannon captured from Chinese or Russian foes were officially installed, with a view to identifying Imperialism, Shinto, and national glory in the popular mind.
Two events specially memorable in this reign were the transfer of the shrine of the Sun goddess to Ise, where it has remained ever since, and the abolition of the custom of junshi, or following in death. The latter shocking usage, a common rite of animistic religion, was in part voluntary, in part compulsory.
Ephum put down the duster, peered out of the door of the private office, and closed it softly. "Marse Comyn?" "Yes?" "Marse Comyn, I ain't got no use fo' dat Misteh Hoppa', Ise kinder sup'stitious 'bout him, Marsa." The Colonel put down his newspaper. "Has he treated you badly, Ephum?" he asked quietly. The faithful negro saw another question in his master's face.
The fire-drill mentioned in the "Kojiki" suggests easily the same line of thought with the myths of cosmogony and theogony, and it is interesting to note that this archaic implement is still used at the sacred temples of Isé to produce fire.
"Dem ain't justifyin' deeds wot's runnin' in your mind," said 'Bijah. "Dey ain't justifyin'." "Ob course," said Grandison, "dey wouldn't be justifyin' if I had de six dollars. But I ain't got 'em, an' Ise promised to pay 'em. Now, is I ter stick to de truf, or isn't I?" "Truf is mighty," said the preacher, "an' ought not to be hendered from prevailin'." "Dat's so! dat's so!" exclaimed Grandison.
I never knew him to talk as spitefully as I heard he did when he took his bundle back to the quarter. Now, boys, tow her out to her moorings and look out for her till we come again. Good-night."
