EMPEROR TEMMU AND LADY FUJIWARA
Magnificent snow
has fallen here at my place.
But at you tumble-down old village of Ohara,
If ever, later it will fall.
-By the Emperor
It was I who did command
The Dragon God of these hills
To send down the snow,
Whereof a few fragments, perchance,
Were sprinkled over your home.
-By the Lady.

Here is Edward Bear,coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump,
on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as
far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but
sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only
he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it.
