Tsunenobu and the demon

Minamoto no Tsunenobu (1016-1097 AD) was an official at the Heian court. One night, he hears the sound of cloth being beaten, and recites a poem written by the poet Ki no Tsurayuki (872-942). He is answered, with lines from another poem, by a giant demon that appears in the sky. The demon recites lines by the great Chinese Tang poet Li Bai (701-762).
