IYAJI. I am afraid of that sort of thing. But I must go on; for my companion has gone on ahead of me, and will be waiting for me. The night is very dark, and he feels quite nervous on account of what the old woman has told him. After having walked a considerable distance, he suddenly hears a fox yelping kon-kon. IYAJI. Come near me, and I will kill you! KIDAHACHI. O lyaji-San!

IYAJI. What are you doing there? KIDAHACHI. I did intend to go on ahead; but I became afraid, and so I concluded to stop here and wait for you. Do not think that you are going to dupe me? KIDAHACHI. That is a queer way to talk! I have some nice mochi here which I bought for you. IYAJI. Horse-dung cannot be eaten! KIDAHACHI. Don't be suspicious! I am really Kidahachi.

Yes! you took the form of Kidahachi just to deceive me! KIDAHACHI. What do you mean? What are you going to do to me? IYAJI. I am going to kill you! IYAJI. If you are really hurt, then let me see you in your real shape! IYAJI. I am feeling for your tail. If you don't put out your tail at once, I shall make you! But there are some very pleasing forms of the Fox-God.

When within a short distance of Akasaka, Kidahachi hastens on in advance to secure good accommodations at the best inn. OLD WOMAN. Please take some tea, sir. IYAJI. Thank you! How far is it from here to the next town? Akasaka? OLD WOMAN. About one ri. But if you have no companion, you had better remain here to-night, because there is a bad fox on the way, who bewitches travellers.
