"FROM A DISTANCE Zojo Temple appeared unchanged, its hilly terrain and
pine forests serenely beautiful under the fresh snow. Sano could almost
believe that all was well at the Tokugawa family temple, home to three
thousand priests, nuns, novices, and their attendants until he and his
troops drew nearer....On the altar, hundreds of candles burned before a
giant golden Buddha statue."
