Yoshida Kenko kirjutas (aga samas ei
kirjutanud ka (ja sellest mittekirjutamisest seoses lumega kirjutas))
umbes 685 aastat tagasi sellise loo (vabandage järgnevat inglise
keelt):
“One morning after a beautiful fall
of snow, I had reason to write a letter to an acquaintance, but I
omitted to make any mention of the snow. I was delighted when she
responded, 'Do you expect me to pay any attention to the words of
someone so perverse that he fails to enquire how I find this snowy
landscape? What deplorable insensitivity!”
