Descrição

A certain samurai of the Phoenix Clan so embarrassed his mother that she let it be known that no longer would she pay his gambling debts, nor support his dissolute lifestyle in Otosan Uchi. The samurai fell on hard times, and was forced to marry into a merchant’s family to replenish his purse. Now flush with koku, the samurai still found that those who saw him spoke behind their fans, “Oh, there goes Empty-Purse-san, the Pauper Samurai,” so for all his new wealth he still had not regained his honor.

– “Gossip Twice-Told,” by Otomo no
