Sectional Reading of “The Soul of the Great Bell by Lafcadio Hearn
“The Soul of the Great Bell”

Nearly five hundred years ago the Celestially August, the Son of
Heaven, Yong-Lo, of the “Illustrious” or Ming dynasty, commanded
the worthy official Kouan-Yu that he should have a bell made of
such size that the sound thereof might be heard for 100 Li. And
he further ordained that the voice of the bell should be
strengthened with brass, and deepened with gold, and sweetened
with silver; and that the face and the great lips of it should be
graven with blessed sayings from the sacred books, and that it
should be suspended in the centre of the imperial capital to sound
through all the many-coloured ways of the City of Pe-King.
Therefore the worthy mandarin Kouan-Yu assembled the master-
moulders and the renowned bellsmiths of the empire, and all men
of great repute and cunning in foundry work; and they measured
the materials for the alloy, and treated them skilfully, and
prepared the moulds, the fires, the instruments, and the
monstrous melting-pot for fusing the metal. And they laboured

Telephone No.: (043) 781-2913; (043)404-1750
exceedingly, like giants neglecting only rest and sleep and the
comforts of life; toiling both night and day in obedience to Kouan-
Yu, and striving in all things to do the behest of the Son of
Heaven.Where and when did the story take place?
1. From the first section of the story, what can you conclude
about the characteristics of Kouan-Yu?
2. What do you think will happen in their first attempt in making

the bell?
But when the metal had been cast, and the earthen mould
separated from the glowing casting, it was discovered that, despite
their great labour and ceaseless care, the result was void of worth;
for the metals had rebelled one against the other—the gold had
scorned alliance with the brass, the silver would not mingle with
the molten iron. The Son of Heaven heard and was angry, but
spoke nothing. A second time the bell was cast, and the result
was even worse. So that all the labour had to be repeated even a
third time, to the great dismay of Kouan-Yu. And when the Son of
Heaven heard these things, he was angrier than before; and
threatened Kouan-Yu with a letter telling him of a consequence of
death if they wouldn’t be successful in casting the bell.Why did
the poor farmer take his mother at the summit of Obatsuyama
Mountain?
1. Based on the events in the second section of the story, how

would you describe the Son of the Heaven?
2. What do you think will happen next?
Ko-Ngai, the daughter of Kouan-Yu bearing a beautiful heart,

saw the letter but she kept it to herself. Thinking of helping her
father, she traded her jewelry and gold to afford an astrologer. In
her meeting with the astrologer, the latter informed her that
there’s no way gold and brass would meet in wedlock, that silver
and iron would only be together in the presence of flesh from a
maiden melted in a crucible and the blood of a virgin must be
mixed in the metal fusion. Following what the astrologer advised
her, she leaped in the crucible for the third attempt. “For thy
sake, O my father!” And even as she cried, she leaped into the
white flood of metal; and the lava of the furnace roared to receive
her, and spattered monstrous flakes of flame to the roof, and
burst over the verge of the earthen crater, and cast up a whirling

fountain of many-coloured fires, and subsided quakingly, with

lightnings and with thunders and with mutterings. Though
Kouan-Yu felt sorrow about what happened, orders of the
Celestial August and Yung-Lo are final and irrevocable. Finally,
the bell was cast successfully and as the bell was rung, it created
a sound that no other bells could be compared.
1. What conclusion can you draw in the actions of Ko-Ngai?

2. What do you think is the moral lesson of the story?
The teacher will ask:
1. What have you learned in the story?
2. If you were Ko-Ngai would you do the same thing? Why or

why not?
3. “Finally, the bell was cast successfully and as the bell was
rung, it created a sound that no other bells could be
compared.” What conclusion can you draw about the ening of
the story?
