Excerpt from Japanese Folk Stories and Fairy Tales A beautiful princess lived in Inaba. She was called the Princess of Yakami, and was the loveliest princess in all the land. Her skin was like velvet, her hair was dark as night, and her eyes were as bright and soft as the stars. She was sweet as well as fair, but willful and when they said, Fair Princess, you must marry, she replied, The time has not yet come. I see nowhere in Inaba the man who may be my lord.

Ancient Tales and Folk-Lore of Japan 'My spirit could not rest until it had lived with KÅnojÅ, whom it knew to be faithful. It has done this now, and is prepared to rest. My only desire is to see KÅnojÅ marry my sister.' Hasunuma, his wife, and KÅnojÅ held a consultation. They were quite prepared that O Kei should marry, and KÅnojÅ did not object. All things being settled, the ghost-girl held out her hand to KÅnojÅ saying: 'This is the last time you will touch the hand of O Ko. Farewell, my dear parents! Farewell to you all! I am about to pass away.' Then she fainted away, and seemed dead, and remained thus for half an hour; while the others, overcome with the strange and weird things which they had seen and heard, sat round her, hardly uttering a word. At the end of half an hour the body came to life, and standing up, said: 'Dear parents, have no more fear for me. I am perfectly well again; but I have no idea how I got down from my sick-room i We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Japanese Fairy Tales by: Yei Theodora Ozaki This collection of Japanese fairy tales is the outcome of a suggestion made to me indirectly through a friend by Mr. Andrew Lang. They have been translated from the modern version written by Sadanami Sanjin. These stories are not literal translations, and though the Japanese story and all quaint Japanese expressions have been faithfully preserved, they have been told more with the view to interest young readers of the West than the technical student of folk-lore.

Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ...to my palace." This the wily old king said, thinking the fisherman would surely throw the turtle aside; but the princess smiled happily, for she knew he would prove kind. Now Urashima, for that was the fisherman's name, knew nothing at all of all this. When therefore next day he found in his net a huge turtle, he said to himself, "Well, my fine fellow, what a pity it is that you are not eatable! You would make a good meal for my honorable parents were you as good as you are big. But since you are not, run along home to your friends," and he dropped the turtle back into the waves. What was his surprise to see rise from the sea and come toward him across the crested waves, a huge dolphin, carrying on its back a sea nymph fair as the dawn. She cast upon him a sun-bright glance and said, "Come with me, oh Mortal! Come to the depths of my sea-girt home and see my palace of emerald and pearl. I was that turtle which you cast into the sea, for I took that form to see if you were of as great kindness of heart as the fishes said." Urashima stood spellbound and stared at the vision of loveliness before him. "Come with me," said the princess, again. "The coral caves await you, --will you not come? " (100) "A DOLPHIN CARRYING ON ITS BACK A SEA NYMPH" "Not for all the wealth of the ocean would I leave my beloved home, but to be with you, loveliest of sea nymphs," cried Urashima, bewitched by her beauty and loveliness. He went with her to the depths of the ocean and there memory fell from him, and he forgot his home. He thought only of the princess and basked in the sunshine of her smile. So they were married and lived happily, and even the old Sea King grew to like Urashima and blessed him before he died. Urashima had lived in the Dragon Palace of the...

Excerpt from Aino Folk-Tales Over most of the country of these rude and helpless indigenes the Japanese have long Since spread, only a dwindling remnant of them still inhabiting the island of Yezo. Since the early days when a couple of them were sent as curiosities to the Emperor of China their uncouth looks and habits have made them objects of interest to more civilised nations. Many European writers have described them, but hardly any with such opportunities as Mr. Basil Hall Chamberlain, Professor of Philology at the tokyo University, who has taken down from the Ainos the present collec tion of their tales, and prefaced it with an account of their ways and state of mind. It would hardly be for me to offer information on a subject so excellently handled, but the request of the Editor of the folk-lore Journal that I would write an Introduction enables me to draw attention to the views put forward by Professor Chamberlain in another publicationfi which, being printed in Japan, may be over looked by many English folk-lore students, even of those interested in the curious Aino problem.
