“lchiyuken was a low class servant in the kitchen of Lord Takanobu. Because of some grudge he had over a matter of wrestling, he cut down seven or eight men and was hence ordered to commit suicide. But when Lord Takanobu heard of this he pardoned the man and said, "In these strife-torn times of our country, brave men are important. This man would seem to be a man of bravery."
Consequently, at the time of the action around the Uji River, Lord Takanobu took Ichiyuken along, and the latter earned unrivaled fame, advancing deep into the lead and plundering the enemy every time .
At the battle of Takagi, Ichiyuken went so far into the enemy lines that Lord Takanobu felt regret and called him back. Since the vanguard had been unable to advance, only by quickly dashing out was he able to grab Ichiyuken by the sleeve of his armor. At that time Ichiyuken's head had suffered many wounds, but he had stopped them up with preen leaves which he bound with a thin towel.”

“Le anime gemelle hanno un'abilità particolare nel ritrovarsi.”
“Le anime hanno un loro particolar modo d'intendersi, d'entrare in intimità, fino a darsi del tu, mentre le nostre persone sono tuttavia impacciate nel commercio delle parole comuni, nella schiavitù delle esigenze sociali. Han bisogni lor proprii e le loro proprie aspirazioni le anime, di cui il corpo non si dà per inteso, quando veda l'impossibilità di soddisfarli e di tradurle in atto. E ogni qualvolta due che comunichino fra loro così, con le anime soltanto, si trovano soli in qualche luogo, provano un turbamento angoscioso e quasi una repulsione violenta d'ogni minimo contatto materiale, una sofferenza che li allontana, e che cessa subito, non appena un terzo intervenga. Allora, passata l'angoscia, le due anime sollevate si ricercano e tornano a sorridersi da lontano.”

It's also around the same time that I wrote several oddly cryptic poems while in a bit of a trance state. I'll share those as quotes here. I got the phrase translated in 2002 through my roommate's childhood best friend, Maggi.”

“Le avrei dovuto dire che tanti saltano nello stesso modo via dalla loro vita, oltre se stessi, rischiando tutto per sentirsi davvero vivi. Avrei dovuto dirle che tutti lo fanno chiusi nelle loro paure. Un posto piccolissimo, molto nero, dove sei solo, e fai fatica a respirare. Non c'è nulla che si possa fare per cambiare le cose e già si è fortunati se qualcuno ha avuto per noi l'attenzione di mettere una piccola musica, là dentro; o se capita di avere un amico ad aspettarci in un'ansa del fiume per riportarci a casa, in una qualche casa.”
