Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

The hotel seemed to me a paradise, and the maids thereof celestial beings.

This was because I had just fled away from one of the Open Ports, where I had ventured to seek comfort in a European hotel, supplied with all modern improvements.

To find myself at ease once more in a yukata, seated upon cool, soft matting, waited upon by sweet-voiced girls, and surrounded by things of beauty, was therefore like a redemption from all the sorrows of the nineteenth century.

Bamboo-shoots and lotus-bulbs were given me for breakfast, and a fan from heaven for a keepsake.
