Now, the younger brother cried and sorrowfully, sat down on a beach. At that time, ShihotsuchinoKami came and interrogated the younger brother as follows.
"Soratsuhiko (Yamasachibiko). What kind of translations do you cry with, and do you feel sad? I'd like to hear the reason."
Yamasachibiko answered as follows.
"I and my elder brother exchanged a bow and arrow and a fishhook. I lost the fishhook. With that, my elder brother charged me the fishhook I lost. I compensated for a lot of fishhooks to my elder brother. But my elder brother doesn't receive it. My elder brother requests me to return an original fishhook. With that, I cry and I feel sad."

Then ShihotsuchinoKami said as follows.
"I'll take corrective measures for you."
Right away, he made Manashikatsumanowobune (small ship of the basket which has no gaps). He put HoworinoMikoto on the ship. He told HoworinoMikoto as follows.
"I push this ship, so you move ahead a little. Then there is a good tideway. You take a tideway just as it is, and go. There is a palace which equals like a scale of fish and is built. That's a palace of WatatsuminoKami. There is a katsura tree near the well near the gate in a palace. When it's being climbed on the tree, a daughter of WatatsuminoKami finds you and advises you."

Therefore it was just what said everything when he went according to teaching. Immediately with that, he climbed the tree and sat down.

HoworinoMikoto wished for water to lady's maid.
Lady's maid drew water into a container immediately, and she gave it to HoworinoMikoto.
However, he did not drink water. He took off the jewel of his neck and took it in his mouth, and he vomited it, and he put it in the container. Then the lady's maid was not able to take off the jewel because the jewel attached to a container. So she gave the container to ToyotamabimenoMikoto with a jewel attaching to the container.

ToyotamabimenoMikoto questioned the lady's maid to see the jewel as follows.
"Is there by any chance somebody outside the gate?"
The lady's maid answered as follows.
"On the katsura by the well, there is a very excellent man. He is more excellent than King of here. Because he wished for water to me, I gave him water. However, he vomited, and he put this jewel without drinking water. I cannot separate this jewel. So I gave you it with supplying the container with a jewel."

Therefore ToyotamabimenoMikoto wondered. She went out and looked at the person. She admired and was correct through a mind each other. She said to her father as follows.
"The gate, there is an excellent person nobly."
The god of the sea which heard it went out and saw it and said as follows.
"He is Soratsuhiko of Young of Amatsuhiko."
