Once upon a time, at a temple where homeless families were sheltering after a fire, a girl and a boy fell in love. Months passed. The burned-out neighborhood was rebuilt. The lovers were separated. Oh, misery! Oh, fleeting, unreal world!
Brooding and sighing, the girl conceived an idea. Since a fire had brought the lovers together, why shouldn't another one reunite them?
Poor thing -- she set to work in such a daze, without plan or precaution, with no guide but the impulse of the moment. The first puff of smoke betrayed her. The law was clear. "Sentences for arson. As for the person who sets the fire: Burning at the stake."
