On Broadway for only a short period of time,(April 2nd, 1964-April 18, 1964), the book Sponono follows just like you were reading a play script. There is a name, and then dialogue afterwords. The scene description and the actors movements are in italics.
This is a tale about a man who lives, "forgive your brother seventy times seven". He assumes that whatever his actions are that he must be forgiven. He eventually denies this phrase, and doesn't forgive someone else in return.
Similar to this is the story in the Bible about the man who was forgiven by the King for owning the him a large sum of money, the man then leaves and demands another man to give him what he owes, or he will have him imprisoned.
This story has a simple moral about when we expect others to forgive us for our actions, we must in turn forgive others for their action in return.
