While struck by the rain
Bull burdened with heavy load
Leaves no marks behind

He paid his debts.

Through a cold hard rain
Bull pulls a heavy cart load
Tracks not left behind

> his.. belief in the Constitution as the protector of all Japanese subjects.. make it axiomatic that the welfare of citizens, no matter how obscure, must take precedence over the demands of.. industry, however ‘vital to the nation’. #Shozo was never antagonistic to industry or #modernization as such but his conviction that people came first was so deeply.. held that he never felt it necessary to discuss in a rational way the problems attendant on #RapidIndustrialization. #TanakaShozo #田中正造 #正造

Night, a cold hard rain
Bull pulls a loaded cart
No wheel tracks remain

Struck hard by the rain
Bull pulls funeral wagon
Nothing left after

This might be the(a?) source for #KennethStrong's book title _Ox Against The Storm: A biography of Tanana Shozo - Japan's Conservationist Pioneer

But isn't an ox a neutered bull?
En Mexicano: ¿Si, buey?
