Reading edition

The ghosts of the “green ox” and “black fowl”10 are mentioned in native legends; while a yet more fantastic extract narrates that “the carp as soon as its scales number 360 is caught and carried away by dragons; but if every year a shên be placed to guard it, it cannot be carried away. This shên is a tortoise.”11
