            <display>In the Dōjōji legend, a woman jumps into the water while chasing a priest. In the river she transforms from an upper-class woman into a dreadful figure with angry eyes and wide-open mouth. Next she grows horns and flashes her fire-like tongue. Her body takes on the form of a dragon, and she winds around the bell in which the monk is hidden. On this particular pair of handscrolls, the woman has a head like a dragon, but her body has no legs; that is, she has the body of a snake.</display>
