こころ 下 九

「一口(ひとくち)でいうと、叔父は私(わたくし)の財産を胡魔化(ごまか)したのです。。。

Sensei wraps up his discussion of how his uncle cheated him of most of his inheritance. The section finishes with Sensei regretting that when he leaves his hometown, he will never have the opportunity to visit the grave sites of his parents. This observation is especially poignant as we realize we, as well as the narrator, are reading his last will and testament.

 私は国を立つ前に、また父と母の墓へ参りました。私はそれぎりその墓を見た事がありません。もう永久に見る機会も来ないでしょう。
