Tongo. Their. Lived on the shore

7:55

of Japan and a little fishing village of

7:57

means you know? yeah. A young

7:59

fisherman. The or as uma tara. His

8:03

father had been a fisherman before him. And.

8:06

His skill have been more than doubly descended

8:08

to his son. Or Sema was

8:10

the most skillful fisher and all

8:12

that countryside. And catch more

8:14

bonito and tie in a day. As

8:17

comrades gotten a week. But.

8:21

In a little fishing village. More than

8:23

for being clever fisher of the see was

8:25

he known for a kind heart. In

8:28

his whole life, he had never heard anything.

8:31

Either great or small, And

8:33

when a boy, his companions had always laughed

8:35

at him. Free. Would never join

8:37

with them and teasing animals. But. Always

8:40

try to keep them from the scrolls for. One.

8:45

soft summer twilight. He. Was going

8:47

home at the end of a days fishing when

8:49

he came upon a group of children. They.

8:53

Were all screaming and talking at the tops

8:55

of their voices. And. Seem to be

8:57

in a state of great excitement about something. And

9:00

on is going up to them to see what was

9:02

the matter. He. Saw that they were

9:04

tormenting a tortoise. First.

9:08

One boy pulled it this way. Than.

9:11

Another boy bought it that way. All.

9:13

A third child beat it with a stick. And.

9:15

The fourth hammer it show with a stone. Now.

9:20

Or seem I felt very sorry for the poor

9:22

toward us. And made up his mind the

9:24

restaurant. He. Spoke to the

9:26

boys. Look

9:29

here boys. The. Were treating that

9:31

poor tortoise so badly that it will soon

9:33

die. The.

9:36

Boys who are all of a to and

9:38

children seem to delight in being cruel to

9:40

animals took no notice of earth seem as

9:42

gentle brew. But went on to using

9:44

it as before. One.

9:47

Of the older boys answer. Who.

9:50

Cares whether lives or dies. We.

9:52

Do Not. Here. Boys go

9:54

on, go on. And.

9:57

Then began to treat the poor tortoise more

9:59

cruelly than ever. We're.

10:02

Seem I waited a moment, Turning over

10:04

in his mind what would be the best way to

10:06

deal with the boys. He

10:08

would try to persuade them to get the doors

10:10

up to him. So. He smiled

10:12

at them and said. I'm

10:15

sure you are all good kind boys. Now.

10:18

Won't you give me the tortoise? I

10:20

should like to have it so much. No.

10:27

We. Won't give you the tortoise said one of the

10:29

boys. My should way. We.

10:31

Called ourselves. What?

10:34

You say is true that are a sema.

10:37

But I do not ask you to give it to me for nothing.

10:40

I'll give you some money for. In

10:43

other words, the oldest son. Uncle

10:45

or buy it off you. Want.

10:48

I do for you my boys. He

10:51

held at the money to them. Strong.

10:53

On a piece of string through a hole in the

10:56

center of each point. Lead

10:58

voice. You can buy anything you like

11:00

with this money. You. Can do

11:03

much more with this money than you can wind

11:05

up or tortoise. See

11:07

what good boys you are to listen to me? The.

11:12

Boys were not bad boys at all. They're.

11:14

Only mischievous. And as

11:16

or seem a spur. There. Were one

11:18

by is kind smile and gentle warrants. And

11:21

began to be of his spirit. As

11:23

they say in Japan, Gradually.

11:27

They. All came up during. The. Ringleader

11:30

of the little ban holding out the tortoise

11:32

to him. Very

11:35

well. order some. We'll.

11:37

Give you the tortoise if you give us the

11:39

money. And or seem

11:41

I took the tortoise and gave the money to

11:43

the boys. Oh, going to each

11:46

other, scampered away when we're soon out of

11:48

sight. Then.

11:52

Or seem a stroke the towards his by. Saying.

11:55

As he did some. Oh

11:57

you poor thing. Poor. Thing. There.

12:00

There. You. Are safe now. They.

12:04

Say that a store gloves were thousand

12:06

years. But the tortoise returned as nearest.

12:09

You. Had the longest life of any creature and

12:11

sorrow. And you are in

12:14

great danger of having a precious life cut

12:16

short by those cruel boys. Luckily.

12:19

I was passing by and saved you. And

12:22

so life is still yours. Now.

12:25

I'm going to take you back to your home. The.

12:27

See I want. Do.

12:30

Not let yourself be caught again. For.

12:32

Their my be no one to say the next time. All.

12:37

The time at the kind fisherman was

12:39

speaking. He was walking quickly to the

12:41

shore and out upon the rocks. Than

12:44

putting the tortoise under the water. He.

12:46

Watched the animal disappear, And

12:48

turn homeward himself. For. Us

12:50

to learn and the son had sir. The.

12:55

Next morning or a seem I went out as

12:58

usual on his bow. The.

13:00

Weather is fine and the sea and sky

13:02

were both blue and soft and the tender

13:04

haze of the summer morning. Or.

13:08

Regime A. got into his bow. And.

13:10

Dreamily pushed out to the see. Throwing.

13:13

As line as he did so. He

13:17

soon bass the other fishing boats and left

13:19

them behind him till they were lost a

13:21

say in the distance. Then about

13:23

drifted further and further out upon the

13:25

blue waters. Somehow.

13:29

He. Knew not why. He felt

13:31

unusually happy that morning. And.

13:34

He can. I help wishing that. Like

13:36

the toward as he set free the day before.

13:39

He had thousands of years to live instead of

13:41

his own short span of human life. He.

13:45

Was suddenly startled from his reverie firing

13:47

his own named gone. Or

13:50

a sema or is sema. Clear.

13:54

As a bell and soft as the summer

13:57

when the name floated over the sea. He

14:01

stood up and looked into very direct. thinking.

14:04

One of the other boats had overtaken. By.

14:07

Days as he might over the wide expanse

14:09

of water. Near far there was

14:12

no sign of any both. So.

14:14

The voice cannot have come from any human being.

14:21

Start. On and wondering who or what

14:23

it was that a call them so

14:25

clearly. He looked in all

14:27

directions around him. And saw that without

14:29

is knowing it. A tortoise com to the

14:31

side of the ball. Or

14:35

assume a saw a surprise that it was

14:37

the very tortoise he had rescued the day

14:39

before. Well.

14:42

Mr. Jordan said or sema. Was.

14:44

It you who call my name just now. The.

14:48

In your honorable shadow. My.

14:57

15:11

up into the bar. I will offer you

15:13

a small. But as you are torn

15:15

15:18

The fishermen laughed at the do. He

15:22

he he last adorn us. Takei

15:25

as my favorite refreshment. But.

15:28

I do not care for tobacco. Indeed,

15:45

the tortoise climbed into the ball. The

15:47

fisherman helping him. And. After

15:49

an exchange of complimentary speeches to

15:51

Tarnish. Have

15:54

you ever seen random? The

15:56

Palace of the Dragon King of the Sea or

15:58

a Sema. The.

16:02

Fisherman shook his head and reply.

16:05

Know. Year

16:07

after year the see has been my home. But.

16:10

Though I've often heard of the Dragon Kings

16:12

Realm under the Sea, I've

16:15

never yet set eyes on a wonderful blaze.

16:18

It must be very far away. If

three days passed without even thinking of

all he left behind. Then.

26:11

Is mine came back to him. And

26:13

he remembered, Oh he was. And. That

26:15

he did not belong to this wonderful lamb

26:17

26:19

He said to himself. Oh

old father and mother at home. More

28:15

Take a back with you. And

28:18

she brought him a beautiful lacquer box tied

28:20

about with a silken card and tassels of

28:23

read so. Or

28:27

a Sima had received so much from the

28:29

princess already. And he felt some

28:31

compunction and taking the yeah, And.

28:34

Some. It

28:36

does not seem right for me to take yet another

28:38

gear from you. After all the

28:40

many favors I have received, your hands.

28:43

But. Because does your wish. I

28:45

he added. Tell

They answered the princess. Is

28:55

the time at Ibaka. Box

29:19

Or seem a promise that he would

29:24

Then bidding goodbye to our the

29:26

humid summer. He went down

29:28

to the seashore. The Princess

29:30

Center attendees following him. And.

29:33

There he found a large tortoise waiting for him.

29:38

He quickly mounted the creatures back and

29:40

was carried away over the shining sea

29:42

into the east. A

29:45

look back to waivers and out to him a

29:47

alma. The. At last he could

29:49

see no more. And

29:52

the land of the sea king in the

29:54

roofs. the wonderful palace were lost in the

29:56

far far distance. Then.

30:00

With. His face turned eagerly towards his own

30:03

land. A look for the rising

30:05

of the blue else on the horizon before him.

30:10

I last a tortoise carried him into the bay.

30:12

He knew so well. And. To the

30:14

Shore When she had said our. He.

30:18

Stepped onto the shore and looked about

30:20

her mother. Tortoise wrote a Way Back

30:22

to The Seeking Round. But.

30:26

What is a strange fear? that Caesar's or

30:28

Sema. As. He stands and looks

30:30

about him. Why

30:33

does a gay so fixedly at the people

30:35

they're passing by. And why do

30:37

they in turn stand and look at him? The

30:41

shores the same and the hills are the same.

30:43

And. The people he sees walking past him

30:46

a very different faces and knows he

30:48

is known so well before. Wondering

30:52

what it can mean. He walks quickly

30:54

towards his own home. Even

30:57

that looks different. But a

30:59

house stands on the spot. And he

31:02

calls our. Father.

31:04

I've just returned. And

31:07

he was about to enter. When. He

31:09

saw strange man coming out. Perhaps.

31:13

My parents have moved while I have been away.

31:16

And have gone somewhere else. Was the

31:18

fisherman's are. Somehow

31:21

he began to feel strangely anxious.

31:24

He cannot tell why. Excuse

31:27

me said he to the man who was staring

31:29

at him. Butter. Within

31:31

the last few days I have lived in

31:33

this house. My. Name is

31:36

or seem a tara. Where.

31:38

My parents gone on my left ear. A

31:43

very bewildered expression came over the face of

31:45

the man. And still gazing

31:47

intently on or a seamless face he said.

31:50

Why? Are you are a

31:52

C Maduro. Yes,

31:55

Said the fishermen. I'm or as

31:57

uma Tara. Her

32:00

last, the man. He

32:02

was not make such jobs. It.

32:05

Is true that once upon a time a

32:07

man called or Scimitars did live in this

32:09

village. But. That is a

32:11

story three hundred years old. He

32:13

cannot possibly be alive now. When.

32:18

Or a sema her The strange words. He

32:20

was frightened. And. Said. Please

32:23

please. You must not joke with

32:25

me. I am greatly perplexed.

32:28

I am really or assume a Tara. And

32:31

I certainly have not lived three hundred years.

32:34

Till for five days ago I lived on

32:36

the spot. Tell me

32:38

what I want to know without more joking. Please.

32:43

But the man say screw more more gray

32:45

and he answered. You

32:47

may or may not be or assume a tara. I

32:50

don't know why. But. The

32:52

or semen Tara of whom I have her as a

32:54

man who lived here three hundred years ago. Perhaps

32:57

you are a spirit come to revisit your old

32:59

home. By.

33:03

Do you mock me said? or sima? I

33:05

know spirit. I am a living

33:08

man. Do not see my fee.

33:11

And don't on. The

33:13

stand on the ground. First.

33:15

With one for. And then with the other

33:17

to show the man. Japanese

33:20

ghost have no feet. But.

33:23

Or a seem entirely three hundred years ago.

33:26

That. Is all I know. It is

33:29

written in the village chronicles persisted the man.

33:31

Who. Cannot believe what the fishermen sir. Or

33:36

Oshima was lost in bewilderment and trouble.

33:39

He stood looking around him terribly

33:42

puzzle. And indeed something

33:44

in the appearance of everything was different to

33:46

what do you remember before he went away.

33:50

And the awful feeling came over am. I

33:52

What the man said was perhaps true. They

33:56

seem to be in a strange dream. A

33:59

few days. He had spent in the seeking

34:01

Palace beyond the sea and up and days

34:03

at all. They. Have been

34:05

hundreds of years. In

34:08

in that time as parents had died. And

34:11

all the people he had ever known. And

34:13

the village had written down a story. There.

34:17

Is no use in staying here any longer.

34:20

He must get back to his beautiful wife. Beyond

34:22

the say. He

34:25

made his way back to the beach caring

34:28

and is an the box which the princess

34:30

a given him. But.

34:32

Which was the way. He

34:34

can I find it alone? Suddenly.

34:37

He remembered the box. The

34:39

Damage: Ibaka. The.

34:42

Princess told me when she gave me this box

34:44

never to open a. That it

34:46

contained a very precious thing. But

34:49

now that I have no home. Now

34:51

that I lost everything that was dear to me

34:53

here. In my heart goes

34:55

down with sadness at that time. If

34:57

I open the box. Surely.

34:59

As you'll find something that will help me. Something.

35:02

That will show me the way back to my

35:04

beautiful princess over the say. There.

35:07

Is nothing else for me to do now? Yes,

35:11

Yes! I will open

35:13

the box and look at. And

35:17

so is our consented to this act

35:19

of disobedience. And he tried

35:21

to persuade himself that he was doing the right

35:23

thing. And breaking is Bruce. Slowly,

35:27

very slowly. The

35:29

untied the red so core. Slowly

35:31

and wondering why, he lifted the lid

35:33

of the brushes box. And

35:36

what did he food? Strange

35:39

to say. Only a

35:41

beautiful little purple cloud rose And of

35:44

the box. In three soft

35:46

wisps. Burn.

35:49

Instantly covered his face and wavered over

35:51

him as if loath to go. And.

35:54

Then it floated away. Like. Vapor

35:56

over the sea. Or.

36:00

Uma. Who had been to

36:02

that moment? Like a strong and handsome you have

36:04

twenty four. Suddenly became very

36:07

very all. His.

36:10

Back doubled up with age. Has

36:13

air turned snowy? Why? His

36:15

face wrinkled any fell down down on the

36:17

beach. Poorer.

36:20

Sema. Because. Of

36:22

his disobedience, it can never return to the

36:25

see things around. Or the lovely princess

36:27

be on the say. Little

36:30

children. Never be

36:32

disobedience. those who are wiser. The new.

36:35

For. Disobedience was the beginning of all

36:37

the miseries and sorrows of like. Thank.

36:47

You for listening to sleeping. In

36:50

I.
