...remnant in local politics. As the liberal Republican who broke the Democratic hold on New York City, he was once touted as a future opponent to Robert Kennedy for the presidency. Only 47, he may yet have a national future, if as a prophet of innovative politics he regains honor in his own house...

Moronao, the governor of Kamakura, lusts after Lady Kaoyo, the wife of Hangan, one of Moronao's deputies. She rebuffs him. Moronao is furious and showers abuse on the unsuspecting and inoffensive Hangan. Pushed...
