The man didn't come as promised, but it was a pity.
It was getting late, the wind and rain, she was y saddened, and knew that mortals and ghosts should not be entangled, so reluctantly put down the river lamp, a few times to look back very much in love, and finally with a wisp of smoke, she disappeared in the landscape, leaving the river lamp alone in the world.
