  1. A circle around the moon.
    The sky yellow when the sun is setting.
    The clouds scudding across the sky.
    The cricket singing.
    The curlew calling.
    A rainbow in the morning.
    The swallows flying low over the grass.
    The cat with his back to the fire.
    The smoke falling to the ground.
    The soot falling.
    The sound of the river to the West.
    "Saigouiiri" on the pot.
    The flies very busy.
    The dog eating grass.
    The distant hills looking near.
    The glow-worm shining.
    The frog hoping on the grass.
    A star near the moon.
    The dust rising.
