biding your time

beautiful writing

① collecting taxes ② harvesting ③ gathering ④ contraction

① gathering ② heavy taxation

To separate the men from the boys

harsh rebuke

victory and defeat

a feast to celebrate longevity

a useless waste of space

Strangers make better teachers than parents

chronic illness

child prodigy

an instant; no time at all

beans and barley

all day long

all day long and in your sleep

lighting incense

sake dish
