jfN1RlE'Cl.UlMRED Once, when the world was younger by 2,000 years than it now is, there lived an emperor in old Nanking, At night he lay inehambers hllng with tapestries patterned in gold. All day his courtiers kowtowed before him until it was time to bring in again the lanterns filled with moonfire. Daylight or moonshine, he felt the hovering presage of a great event.
