'As she spoke, Urasato leaned far out over the balcony, the picture of youth, grace and beauty', 1919. '...her figure supple and fragile as a willow branch wafted to and fro by a summer breeze, and about her an air of the wistful sadness of the rains of early spring.' Illustration to "Urasato,or the Crow of Dawn", a story in "Romances of Old Japan", by Madame Yukio Ozaki. [Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent & Co. Ltd, London, 1919]
