+<h2>THE FISHER-BOY URASHIMA.</h2>

+<p>ong, long ago there lived
+on the coast of the sea
+of Japan a young fisherman
+named Urashima, a kindly lad
+and clever with his rod and line.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 375px;">
+<img src="images/img004.jpg" width="375" height="592" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Well, one day he went out in
+his boat to fish. But instead of
+catching any fish, what do you
+think he caught? Why! a great
+big tortoise, with a hard shell
+and such a funny wrinkled old
+face and a tiny tail. Now I
+must tell you something which
+very likely you don&#8217;t know; and
+that is that tortoises always live
+a thousand years,&mdash;at least Japanese
+tortoises do. So Urashima
+thought to himself: &ldquo;A fish would
+do for my dinner just as well as
+this tortoise,&mdash;in fact better. Why
+should I go and kill the poor
+thing, and prevent it from enjoying
+itself for another nine hundred
+and ninety-nine years? No, no!
+I won&#8217;t be so cruel. I am sure
+mother wouldn&#8217;t like me to.&rdquo;
+And with these words, he threw
+the tortoise back into the sea.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 375px;">
+<img src="images/img007.jpg" width="375" height="505" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>The next thing that happened
+was that Urashima went to sleep
+in his boat; for it was one of
+those hot summer days when
+almost everybody enjoys a nap
+of an afternoon. And as he slept,
+there came up from beneath the
+waves a beautiful girl,
+who got into the boat and said:
+&ldquo;I am the daughter of the Sea-God,
+and I live with my father
+in the Dragon Palace beyond
+the waves. It was not a tortoise
+that you caught just now,
+and so kindly threw back into the
+water instead of killing it. It was
+myself. My father the Sea-God
+had sent me to see whether you
+were good or bad.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 558px;">
+<img src="images/img009.jpg" width="558" height="255" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>&ldquo;We now know that you are a
+good, kind boy who doesn&#8217;t like
+to do cruel things; and so I have
+come to fetch you. You shall
+marry me, if you like; and we
+will live happily together for a
+thousand years in the Dragon
+Palace beyond the deep blue sea.&rdquo;</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 598px;">
+<img src="images/img011.jpg" width="598" height="208" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>So Urashima took one oar, and
+the Sea-God&#8217;s daughter took the
+other; and they rowed, and they
+rowed, and they rowed till at last
+they came to the Dragon Palace
+where the Sea-God lived and ruled
+as King over all the dragons
+and the tortoises and the fishes.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 598px;">
+<img src="images/img013.jpg" width="598" height="361" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Oh dear! what a lovely place
+it was! The walls of the Palace
+were of coral, the trees had
+emeralds for leaves and rubies
+for berries, the fishes&#8217; scales were
+of silver, and the dragons&#8217; tails
+of solid gold. Just think of the
+very most beautiful, glittering
+things that you have ever seen,
+and put them all together,
+and then you will know what
+this Palace looked like. And
+it all belonged to Urashima;
+for was he not the son-in-law of
+the Sea-God, the husband of the
+lovely Dragon Princess?</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 375px;">
+<img src="images/img014.jpg" width="375" height="601" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 375px;">
+<img src="images/img015.jpg" width="375" height="477" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Well, they lived on happily
+for three years, wandering about
+every day among the beautiful
+trees with emerald leaves and
+ruby berries. But one morning
+Urashima said to his wife: &ldquo;I
+am very happy here. Still I
+want to go home and see my
+father and mother and brothers
+and sisters. Just let me go for
+a short time, and I&#8217;ll soon be
+back again.&rdquo; &ldquo;I don&#8217;t like you
+to go,&rdquo; said she; &ldquo;I am very
+much afraid that something dreadful
+will happen. However, if you
+will go, there is no help for it.
+Only you must take this box, and
+be very careful not to open it.
+If you open it, you will never
+be able to come back here.&rdquo;</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 375px;">
+<img src="images/img017.jpg" width="375" height="378" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>So Urashima promised to take
+great care of the box, and not
+to open it on any account; and
+then, getting into his boat, he
+rowed off, and at last landed on
+the shore of his own country.</p>
+
+<p>But what had happened while
+he had been away? Where had
+his father&#8217;s cottage gone to?
+What had become of the village
+where he used to live? The
+mountains indeed were there as
+before; but the trees on them
+had been cut down. The little
+brook that ran close by his
+father&#8217;s cottage was still running;
+but there were no women washing
+clothes in it any more. It
+seemed very strange that everything
+should have changed so
+much in three short years. So
+as two men chanced to pass
+along the beach, Urashima went
+up to them and said: &ldquo;Can you
+tell me please where Urashima&#8217;s
+cottage, that used to stand here,
+has been moved to?&rdquo;&mdash;&ldquo;Urashima?&rdquo;
+said they; &ldquo;why! it was
+four hundred years ago that he
+was drowned out fishing. His
+parents, and his brothers, and
+their grandchildren are all dead
+long ago. It is an old, old story.
+How can you be so foolish as to
+ask after his cottage? It fell to
+pieces hundreds of years ago.&rdquo;</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 598px;">
+<img src="images/img021.jpg" width="598" height="336" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Then it suddenly flashed
+across Urashima&#8217;s mind that the
+Sea-God&#8217;s Palace beyond the
+waves, with its coral walls and
+its ruby fruits and its dragons
+with tails of solid gold, must be
+part of fairy-land, and that one
+day there was probably as long
+as a year in this world, so that
+his three years in the Sea-God&#8217;s
+Palace had really been hundreds
+of years. Of course there was
+no use in staying at home, now
+that all his friends were dead
+and buried, and even the village
+had passed away. So Urashima
+was in a great hurry to get back
+to his wife, the Dragon Princess
+beyond the sea. But which was
+the way? He couldn&#8217;t find it
+with no one to show it to him.
+&ldquo;Perhaps,&rdquo; thought he, &ldquo;if I
+open the box which she gave me,
+I shall be able to find the way.&rdquo;
+So he disobeyed her orders not
+to open the box,&mdash;or perhaps
+he forgot them, foolish boy that
+he was. Anyhow he opened
+the box; and what do you
+think came out of it?
+Nothing but a white cloud which
+floated away over the sea. Urashima
+shouted to the cloud to
+stop, rushed about and screamed
+with sorrow; for he remembered
+now what his wife had told him,
+and how, after opening the box,
+he should never be able to go
+to the Sea-God&#8217;s Palace again.
+But soon he could neither run
+nor shout any more.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 598px;">
+<img src="images/img025.jpg" width="598" height="464" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Suddenly his hair grew as white
+as snow, his face got wrinkled,
+and his back bent like that of a
+very old man. Then his breath
+stopped short, and he fell down
+dead on the beach.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 375px;">
+<img src="images/img027.jpg" width="375" height="287" alt="image" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Poor Urashima! He died because
+he had been foolish and
+disobedient. If only he had done
+as he was told, he might have
+lived another thousand years.
+Wouldn&#8217;t you like to go and
+see the Dragon Palace beyond
+the waves, where the Sea-God
+lives and rules as King over the
+Dragons and the tortoises and
+the fishes, where the trees have
+emeralds for leaves and rubies
+for berries, where the fishes&#8217; tails
+are of silver and the dragons&#8217;
+tails all of solid gold?</p>
