【正文】 s friend and coworker, Miss Mikawa does not necessarily dislike Mr. Morishita. It is likely that the reason she refused is that she simply does not like him all that much.A head and shoulders shot of Akiko Mikawa loomed on the screen.From this, it is believed that Mr. Morishita did not make a particularly strong impression on Miss Mikawa the first time she had tea with him. Meanwhile, informed sources report that tonight Mr. Morishita did not go anywhere after work, but returned directly to his lodgings, where he prepared and is eating dinner by himself. That concludes our news about Mr. Morishita. In other news, this evening is the night festival at the Yakuyoke Hachiman Shrine in Mizugaoka, Kobe. Let39。s refusal of Mr. Morishita39。s life) became the vehicle and depository of his profoundest reflections. In h is later writing mythology and poetry sank down behind his theological and philosophical preoccupations: from which arose inpatibilities of tone. I was astonished while watching the news on NHK when the announcer suddenly began talking about me....and that concludes our news about Vietnam. Next, domestic topics.Today, Mr. Tsutomu Morishita invited Miss Akiko Mikawa, a typist at his pany, out to tea, but was refused. This was the fifth time Mr. Morishita had invited Miss Mikawa out to tea, though she39。old39。 it became long ago a fixed tradition, and background to later writings. But it was far indeed from being a fixed text, and did not remain unchanged even in certain fundamental ideas concerning the nature of the world it portrays。 and in battered notebooks extending back to 1917 can still be read the earliest versions, often hastily pencilled, of the central stories of the mythology. But it was never published (though some indication of its content could be gleaned from The Lord of the Rings), and throughout my father39。 but the tales of The Silmarillion are legends deriving from a much deeper past, when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middleearth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils. Not only, however, does The Silmarillion relate the events of a far earlier time than those of The Lord of the Rings。Seest thou not how here in this little realm in the Deeps of Time Melkor hath made war upon thy province? He hath bethought him of bitter cold immoderate, and yet hath not destroyed the beauty of thy fountains, nor of my clear pools. Behold the snow, and the cunning work of frost! Melkor hath devised heats and fire without restraint, and hath not dried up thy desire nor utterly quelled the music of the sea. Behold rather the height and glory of the clouds, and the everchanging mists。 but the delight and pride of Aul?is in the deed of making, and in the thing made, and neither in possession nor in his own mastery。 but because of the roaring of the sea they felt a great unquiet. And they observed the winds and the air, and the matters of which Arda was made, of iron and stone and silver and gold and many substances: but of all these water they most greatly praised. And it is said by the Eldar that in water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance else that is in this Earth。 and he wished himself to have subject and servants, and to be called Lord, and to be a master over other wills.But the other Ainur looked upon this habitation set within the vast spaces of the World, which the Elves call Arda, the Earth。 as who should take the whole field of Arda for the foundation of a pillar and so raise it until the cone of its summit were more bitter than a needle。 and they perceived that they themselves in the labour of their music had been busy with the preparation of this dwelling, and yet knew not that it had any purpose beyond its own beauty. For the Children of Il鷙atar were conceived by him alone。And many other things Il鷙atar spoke to the Ainur at that time, and because of their memory of his words, and the knowledge that each has of the music that he himself made, the Ainur know much of what was, and is, and is to e, and few things are unseen by them. Yet some things there are that they cannot see, neither alone nor taking counsel together。Behold your Music! This is your minstrelsy。 And he showed to them a vision, giving to them sight where before was only hearing。 and the Ainur followed him.But when they were e into the Void, Il鷙atar said to them: 39。Then the Ainur were afraid, and they did not yet prehend the words that were said to them。Mighty are the Ainur, and mightiest among them is Melkor。 but it was loud, and vain, and endlessly repeated。 and he lifted up his right hand, and behold! a third theme grew amid the confusion, and it was unlike the others. For it seemed at first soft and sweet, a mere rippling of gentle sounds in delicate melodies。 but some began to attune their music to his rather than to the thought which they had at first. Then the discord of Melkor spread ever wider, and the melodies which had been heard before foundered in a sea of turbulent sound. But Il鷙atar sat and hearkened until it seemed that about his throne there was a raging storm, as of dark waters that made war one upon another in an endless wrath that would not be assuaged.Then Il鷙atar arose, and the Ainur perceived that he smiled。 and a sound arose of endless interchanging melodies woven in harmony that passed beyond hearing into the depths and into the heights, and the places of the dwelling of Il鷙atar were filled to overflowing, and the music and the echo of the music went out into the Void, and it was not void. Never since have the Ainur made any music like to this music, though it has been said that a greater still shall be made before Il鷙atar by the choirs of the Ainur and the Children of Il鷙atar after the end of days. Then the themes of Il鷙atar shall be played aright, and take Being in the moment of their utterance, for all shall then understand fully his intent in their part, and each shall know
