| One night, somebody knocks on the sliding shutter of a candy store, so a storekeeper opens the shutter to see a pale-faced young woman with disheveled hair who gives him a one-mon coin ("mon" is a monetary unit of old times) saying, 'I want some candy.' |
ある夜、店じまいした飴屋の雨戸をたたく音がするので主人が出てみると、青白い顔をして髪をボサボサに乱した若い女が「飴を下さい」と一文銭を差し出した。 |
