It was a sunny, early summer day,
on the roof of the house east of ours:
because of the hard sunshine in the morning,
Lady Shiro was sleeping coiled like a snake
in the shade. (1)

As the sun moved on,
she moved, too: to the edge of the roof. (2 to 4)
But she didn’t need to sleep in such a dangerous place…

Don’t you think?
