About this book
The Way of the Gods, by John Luther Long, has a contents list naming chapters called Nippon Denji and The Flying of the August Carp, among others. The text says that four times on earth and once elsewhere Shijiro Arisuga thought the happiest moment of his life had come. The text gives two proverbs on happiness in Japan, one holding that happiness is like the tai and the other that it has in it the note of the uguisu.
A speaker swears, By all the eight hundred thousand gods, I will marry her for all my lives! A woman demands, How will you assure me of this? and Shijiro answers, By nothing but my word. A watchman with staff and lantern cries weirdly in the night that he heard a foolish song in this sacred place of tombs.
