Han No - Tôru - Shakuno Mai
A monk who has just arrived in the capital meets an old man who is carrying buckets of water, saying he’s taking them to the salt marshes. The monk asks where there are salt marshes in Kyoto and the old man explains that when Minamoto no Tôru built his residence there, he made an exact replica of a bay in Mutsu province, including the salt marshes of this bay. This is where he carries this water. He reveals that he is Tôru’s ghost and disappears. Later, he appears as the Prince himself, recounts the splendours of his palace, and dances.
