4. Ikkyu and the syrup
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

1. The priest kept a jar of sweet syrup which he would sometimes dip a finger into a lick.
2. He told Ikkyu and the other disciples not to lick the syrup or they would die.
3. One day, while the priest was out, Ikkyu and the disciples tried to taste the syrup.
4. They also broke one of the priests valuable pots.
5. "Don't worry," said Ikkyu.
6. When the priest came home, he found all the disciples crying.
7. Ikkyu explained, "We broke your valuable pot and we were very sorry.
  So we decided to kill ourselves by licking the syrup."
8. "But no matter how much we eat, we still can't die."
