Two Noh plays with an interlude of dances from a third. First is YOROBOSHI (The Priest with Faltering Tread'). Michitoshi (the waki) had turned his son out of his house because of some slander. Regretting this he now gives alms to beggars outside a temple. One of the beggars turns out to be his son, now blind and nicknamed 'the priest with faltering tread' (the shite). After a song about the temple, the other beggars leave and Michitoshi and his son are reconciled and return to M's house. The interlude dances are from SEI OBO ('Hsi Wang Mu'), about the benevolent government of a Chinese emperor of that name. The last Noh is KURUMAZO ('The Carriage Priest'). A priest (the waki) travels the country in an old carriage. He is accosted by a Yamabushi (mountain wanderer) priest, the shite, who tries to best him in a religious dispute, fails in this, then in the second part reappears in his true form as a 'goblin' to attack him. But the carriage priest's superior power defeats him again and he retires. Between the two parts a 'kyogen' comic goblin appears. (Information from A GUIDE TO NO by P. G. O'Neill.)
