'"This is the head of Kanshusai, the son of the Lord Sugawara!"', 1919. The severed head was, in fact, that of little Kotaro. Genzo exclaims: '"The Gods have accorded their mighty aid to our cause and mercifully caused Matsuo's eyes to be dimmed, so that he mistook the other boy's head for that of our young prince. Heaven has clearly interposed to help our lord. Let us rejoice, my wife!"' Illustration to "Loyal, Even Unto Death, or The Sugawara Tragedy", a story in "Romances of Old Japan", by Madame Yukio Ozaki. [Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent & Co. Ltd, London, 1919]
