with a hoe, began to dig; but

the old man kicked and beat
him to death, and the old
woman finished the work by
nearly chopping off his head
with the sharp hoe. They then
flung him into the hole and
heaped the earth over his
carcass. The owner of the dog
heard of the death of his pet
and, mourning for him as if he
had been his own child, went at
night under the pine tree. He

the ground, such as are used

fresh flowers. Then he laid a

his pet, calling him many dear
names, as if he were alive. That
night the spirit of the dog
appeared to him in a dream and
said, “Cut down the pine tree
over my grave, and make from
it a mortar for your rice pastry
