"You will if I let him out!" "I will not!" "Try him!" "You'll scream." "Your mother will be angry" "Do not worry!" "I will not scream." "Please!" "Stubborn!" "Coward!" "Coward?" "You big coward!" "Do not cry out!" "Are you all right?" "That crazy mean horse!" "It is not his fault." "You think it's mine?" "Do not be angry" "Why don't you hold me in your arms?" "Women!" "Wench!" "Listen!" "Is your mother home?" "Warn her!" "Tell her she's trespassing!" "We will collect our share of the tribute soon!" "Remember!" "I will run you two out of this territory unless you behave!" "Who's that?" "A brigand" "Hurry!" "He will be back again!" "Say!" "This is splendid!" "What is your trade?" "Outwardly, herb-farming" "And actually?" "Actually?" "Connected with brigands?" "To some extent" "Mother!" "This is solid gold!" "It is." "Splendid!" "Stripping dead samurai?" "Yes." "Otherwise we cannot live" "Not scared?" "So what?" "You also?" "Of course." "They are dead!" "Will that brigand really come?" "Is your mother not frightened?" "Is the hiding-place far?" "Please speak to me" "Do not be angry with me" "Forget it!" "You have Otsu!" "He has no right to stop me" "I can do whatever I like!" "He killed my husband" "People say so." "But I hate to believe it" "My man was a bigger man."

"First fame, then I shall return home" "Parents?" "No" "Relatives?" "Yes" "I am wild, so they hate me" "Lonely?" "No!" "Good fortune to you!" "Already!" "The bandit!" "Good!" "I shall test this." "Wait!" "Are you alone?" "Where's the wench?" "Bring out the treasure quietly, quick!" "Or you'll regret it!" "Stubborn one!" "Let us search!" "The ceiling!" "Who are you?" "Kill him!" "I will never let you go!" "What are you doing?" "Never!" "A woman is drawn to a strong man!" "You make me feel like a woman!" "Take me, Takezo!" "I love you!" "A woman says this, only when she loves!" "Take me!" "Who was that running passed us?" "Must we leave at once?" "Yes!" "We have to get out before dawn" "His bandits are bound to come to kill us!" "We'll fight" "We'll wait for Takezo, won't we?" "He won't come back!" "Why?" "He attempted to assault me." "He is a savage!" "I repulsed him." "He ran away" "You're gentle and kind, Matahachi, not like that wild boar!" "Please help us." "Will you?" "Will you help us?" "Takezo!" "That fool!" "What about your mother and Otsu?" "You fool, Matahachi!" "You fool, Matahachi!" "Give them our gold!" "Never!" "Our lives..." "Do not touch the women!" "We can talk!" "Matahachi!" "You are brave!" ""All travelers must show proper identification"" "What is your destination?" "Miyamoto Village" "He looks like a bandit" "Seize him!" "Priest Takuan!" "Look at yourself!" ""Holy I am alone..."" "Drink, my newborn Buddha!" "Find me a drying pole instead" "I washed my only clothes" "What will you do in the meantime?" "I shall stay like this" "Please!" "It is unbecoming!" "What do you mean?" "Human beings are born naked." "Oh!" "You priests!" "Mother Osugi!" "Otsu!" "My dear!" "What is happening?" "I hear Takezo broke through the guard and is in this area" "We may hear about Matahachi!" "So you are Takezo's relatives?" "We are quite distant relatives, sir" "And we have nothing to do with him" "He was such an unmanageable fellow" "We outlawed him." "We call him "The Lawless"" "Very well." "Now listen!" "I am organizing a hunt for him, with my base at this temple" "All of you will cooperate and assist us!" "That "Lawless" Takezo is a terror" "He let my son die alone and he shamelessly came home" "We must punish him!" "Matahachi, where are you?" "How criminal!" "Bloodshed in a temple!" "What audacity to come here!" "He is a demon!" "A devil, indeed!" "The village will be penalized for this!" "Understand?" "Two from each family shall report at once for the hunt!" "That is an order!" "Hurry up!" "Now arrest all villagers related to him!" "They will be the bait!" "Come on!" "You lazy louts!" "Are you dead?" "Hurry up!" "Hurry up!" "Thank you for your work" "Should Matahachi be dead, what will you do?" "I will still consider you as my daughter-in-law" "You are, aren't you?" "Aren't you?" "I am relieved to hear that" "It would not be proper to leave you at the temple too long" "You will live here with me!" "Or don't you like that idea?" "You should like it" "I shall teach you to sew and weave" "Mother Osugi!" "Takezo!" "Listen!" "Matahachi is not dead!" "I came to tell you that!" "He's not dead!" "Where is he?" "I do not know!" "But he is alive!" "What is he doing?" "I cannot... tell you that!" "Do not ask me!" "Takezo!" "Where are you going?" "I hate this village" "I came to tell you of your son!" "I am glad." "But you mustn't leave so quickly" "Aren't you hungry?" "I have not eaten for days!" "Poor Takezo!" "I will get you something" "No guard will ever look here" "Take a bath, too!" "Yes!" "This is wonderful, so calm, so nice" "I thought Mother Osugi would be bitter" "I am!" "You did not bring him back to me!" "Why?" "I'm sorry." "I could not" "But why will you not tell me the reason?" "What is he doing?" "I cannot tell you that" "Mother Osugi!" "Quiet!" "A trap!" "Osugi!" "Traitress!" "I came to comfort you." "And you betrayed me!" "Matahachi deserted me!" "He is weak!" "A coward!" "Reinforcements arrived from the castle today" "The roadways and hills are covered by guards" "He is trapped" "Villagers shall continue the hunt day and night!" "Hurry up!" "Otsu!" "A letter" "What happened?" "From Matahachi, and one Oko!" "Matahachi has been my lover since the great battle" "We have since married" "I learned of his betrothal to you as he spoke in his sleep" "You must not wait for him" "Your heart must not cry" "You are out to capture me too?" "No, you are mistaken!" "Spare me!" "It's terrible!" "Come, somebody!" "Takezo did this!" "I'm going into the mountains" "This is idiotic just to catch a man" "The villagers are frightened." "You... alone?" "So many men have already failed to catch him" "Takezo is a man, with a man's weaknesses." "No" "Wait and see." "I shall bring him back in due time" "Priest!" "I'll go with you!" "That is why you came with me" "You wanted to hear more about Matahachi" "He was unfaithful." "Forget him!" "I am glad for you, you are young" "I cannot think that way" "What troubles you?" "I am confused!" "My heart is broken!" "Forgive me." "I did not mean to make you cry" "Otsu!" "Play the bamboo flute." "It heals sorrow" "Meanwhile the food will get warm" "Good evening." "Is it not cold and damp out there?" "Come nearer the fire" "Priest!" "Talking to yourself?" "Not at all, look out there in the reeds" "Wait!" "Come here." "We will not harm you" "Here is fire and food to warm yourself" "We're not your enemies." "No, not at all" "Let us talk by the fire" "Here." "Come over here" "It is good?" "Why are you here?" "To capture you" "If you will surrender to a Buddhist priest... consideration shall be given you." "Never!" "My boy!" "Do you think you can win?" "Yes!" "Trying to defeat yourself, also?" "I do not mind dying in a good fight!" "But before I die, I will have some blood!" "What about your relatives?" "They are prisoners on your account" "Who are they?" "Who are they?" "Some are suffering." "Hang them all!" "Better dead!" "All of them!" "Even the women?" "Quiet!" "Their children?" "I don't care." "Let all of them..." "Fool!" "Wild fool!" "I punish you, with the hand of your parents!" "Takezo has been captured!" "Takezo's captured!" "I did not capture him for the reward" "You say you will not deliver him to me?" "If you refuse to leave him to me, I shall free him!" "Then recapture him yourself." "What do you mean?" "Do you want to kill me?" "Good" "Deliver my head to Himeji Castle, to Lord Ikeda" "He would probably say "Good priest Takuan, where is the rest of you?"" "Is my Lord your friend?" "Take my head and find out." "Cut it off clean" "I beg you a thousand pardons, Your Grace!" "But what about Takezo?" "Will you let me handle him my way?" "Yes." "If you'll give me his head later" "Good, Aoki." "Funerals are my job" "I would have no work if you got the corpses also!" "Takuan!" "What is it?" "I have something to tell you!" "Come closer" "Here I am!" "What do you want?" "Why don't you behead me?" "You shame me this way!" "And you call yourself a priest!" "Do you not know how to treat a samurai?" "ldiot!" "You're a spirited one!" "Lout!" "I could have crushed you!" "Too bad you didn't!" "I surrendered believing you were a man of high virtue" "A true sign of stupidity!" "I did nothing" "I am not ashamed." "I am a samurai!" "Are you?" "Samurai!" "With your spirit you won't die for some time" "Priest!" "You trash!" "Please!" "Why be so cruel..." "he is helpless!" "It is not your concern." "Yes, it is!" "I helped capture him!" "No!" "I insist that I have my way in this!" "I cannot believe this!" "It is incredible!" "Oh, but that I had great strength!" "Takezo!" "Maybe he is dead!" "He's still alive!" "Let's stone him and see!" "Children!" "Go home!" "Whether he is dead or alive... you are my daughter-in-law!" "Understand?" "I would rather die!" "Fool!" "I'm telling you to leave the temple and join my house!" "But to me that will mean only death!" "Why?" "A house without love is a living death" "Quiet!" "How dare you say that?" "You are a mere child!" "Ungrateful young wench!" "Priest!" "Priest!" "Please!" "Are you still there?" "Come inside!" "It is cold" "Have mercy on him." "Please cut him down!" "No!" "lmpossible!" "I am begging you!" "He will die!" "No!" "Please!" "For mercy's sake!" "I promise to do anything!" "Only forgive him" "It is justice!" "You are merciless!" "A devil!" "A demon!" "Takezo!" "Takezo!" "What do you want, trash?" "You still have your tongue, I see!" "Maybe you will live!" "Shut up!" "Behead me!" "It is dangerous" "Even after death, your head would jump at me" "Is the moon not beautiful tonight?" "Poor fellow." "At last he's lost his reason" "Silence!" "My body will kill you when I fall!" "That's the spirit, my boy!" "Easy now!" "Such a futile struggle" "Could you but use that force for humanity's good!" "God and man would be moved." "Nay, even the universe!" "A man must know awe, and fear God" "Conceited in your strength, you ignored wisdom and virtue" "You thought you could defeat the world" "Look at yourself!" "Wisdom and strong virtues combined, make a man" "Understand?" "Think it over till dawn" "I shall behead you then" "Wait!" "Good priest, is it true?" "I am truly a man!" "Do not let me die like an animal!" "Spare my life!" "I want to live!" "God help me live!" "Well said!" "But, life is like a real battle" "There's no return match" "Prepare for death, recite the Sutras of Buddha!" "Otsu!" "Why?" "Do not ask me!" "Let us run." "They will kill us at first sight!" "Otsu!" "ls this a dream?" "Am I alive?" "I am so hungry" "I have rice-cakes in my parcel, Takezo!" "But I cannot open it." "My hands!" "I'm sorry, will you open it?" "Otsu!" "Thank you!" "It is all right" "I am such a fool!" "I apologize!" "I apologize!" "As I was gazing at you, bound and hanging" "I saw that I too was bound by an unseen rope" "And I could not cut the rope by myself" "Takezo!" "I cannot go back!" "Take me with you!" "Do you hate me?" "Once" "But now..." "And I..." "Please!" "What would I do if you discarded me?" "I am alone." "All alone in this world!" "I, too" "Then you must know how I feel!" "But I have no power to make you happy" "Takezo!" "Both of us are lonely" "Look!" "Takezo!" "Capture them!" "Fire a signal!" "Use the gun and powder!" "Leave me here!" "You run alone!" "I cannot!" "Wait for me here!" "Understand?" "Wait here!" "Takezo!" "Takezo!" "Himeji Castle" "Mother Osugi!" "Mother Osugi!" "What is it?" "Otsu's been taken to the castle!" "Takezo escaped capture!" "Quiet, everybody!" "Old one!" "Prepare for a trip!" "To defend the prestige of my name!" "We will kill Otsu and Takezo!" "Listen!" "You shall have the first cut at Takezo!" "Me... the first cut?" "Yes." "And I will do the beheading!" "Watch your step!" "Silence, fool!" "Watch it yourself." "You are no goat!" "Takezo!" "Are you still an animal?" "Otsu rescued me." "I must get her out!" "Fool!" "She is safe" "Follow me" "Priest Takuan!" "Priest Takuan!" "She is safely sheltered near the bridge of Hanada" "You dirty lying rogue!" "Open here!" "Open the door!" "Takezo!" "This room is yours for some time" "Otsu will wait!" "You lie!" "She is alone!" "She will wait!" "ln those books are many of the things you need!" "Master them, and retrospect!" "I leave you, wild fool!" "Bridge of Hanada" "It may be years!" "You will be waiting faithfully?" "Remember this" "As you know a priest has little understanding of love matters" "Farewell" "Kyoto" "That is not the song of a child!" "When did she learn it?" "Probably in secret for tonight" "You are in love" "Akemi, how old are you?" "Guess how old I am." "Sixteen?" "No, seventeen!" "Was I mistaken?" "She is already twenty-one" "Amazing!" "She looks so young!" "Is it true?" "I am happy" "I wish I could be sixteen forever." "Why?" "Something wonderful took place." "What was it?" "It was the year of the Great Battle" "I was sixteen, then." "Yes, and?" "Akemi!" "Do not talk of old wars" "You see, those days bring ugly memories to me" "But probably not to a child" "By the way, let us attend the Kabuki Theatre!" "Yes let's." "All of us!" "Eh, Akemi?" "Wonderful!" "Let us change!" "You go as you are." "Excuse me a moment" "Fetch the sedan chairs" "I will go." "You remain here with Seijuro" "Akemi, finish that story" "It is a secret." "About a man?" "We will offer Seijuro Akemi in return for wealth!" "She would displease him!" "Jealous?" "Ambitious?" "In truth..." "I am" "If he accepts Akemi, we can live in luxury together!" "Where are you going?" "How long must you flatter that young fool?" "I know my own business" "You would even sell your own daughter!" "You are a strange woman" "You have destroyed my life" "What kind of a man are you?" "I wish I had not rejected Takezo that night." "He is a man!" "I am your husband!" "An idiot, you mean!" "Order the sedan chairs." "Four of them!" "Otsu!" "Three years have passed." "Priest Takuan, realizing that Takezo ia a man of exceptional qualities, has intervened on his behalf." "Takezo has begun his moral training... in preparation for service in the cause of Himeji Castle." "We will give him a title appropriate for a samurai" "Miyamoto Musashi!" "Musashi, it is good" "You do not wish to be in my service?" "Why?" "I am far from ready, sir" "Then you shall travel and train yourself!" "Yes, my Lord" "I pray for him, my Lord!" "What thorough protection!" "The world is vast and boundless." "Be staunch!" "What happened?" "May I bid Otsu goodbye?" "The parting will be sad, my friend" "I must tell her I am leaving" "I will tell her for you." "But" "No!" "She is my life!" "So you must see her?" "Takezo!" "ls that the only reason?" "If so, I will not stop you" "But you must have another." "Yes?" "Takezo!" "Cut off the past!" "You are a new man." "Reborn as it were" "Break clean from the past!" "Thank you very much." "Please come again" "Welcome" "Takezo!" "I have waited!" "It was too difficult" "Otsu!" "Give me up for dead!" "I cannot!" "It is our fortune!" "Then, for what have I waited these three years?" "You told me we two would help each other to new life!" "Was that a lie?" "A whim?" "Forgive me" "No, no!" "It is cruel of Priest Takuan, too!" "Please, Takezo!" "Take me with you wherever you go" "I am to travel for training" "But why can't I be with you?" "Have I displeased you, Takezo?" "No" "I love you, Otsu!" "I constantly thought of you in the castle." "Then, why?" "If you care for me, do not follow" "I will follow even beyond the Great Seas" "Take me with you" "I will not hinder you" "Take me!" "If I annoy you..." "leave me in a wilderness, or anywhere you like!" "I shall be obedient" "But take me with you!" "Oh God!" "Wait here my love, I shall prepare myself" "Wait!" "Soon I will be back" "FORGIVE ME" "THE END"
