説明：
Standing in a room, pipe in hand, a matron looks down at a young man who has one knee upon the floor before her as, with his upraised left hand he restrains her from disturbing a young woman who lies beneath the futon covering a large kotatsu (quilt spread over a rack covering a brazier/fire box) which is behind him. The scene is a mitate of the legend of Musume Dojoji, the maiden Kiyohime who fell in love with the Buddhist monk Anchin of the Dojoji temple. When the monk spurned Kiyohime's advances she made his life so miserable that, to escape from her, he hid under the great temple bell whereupon she changed into a dragon-demon. The dragon-demon coiled around the bell and lashed it with her tail until it become red hot and the monk was incinerated.
