There Prince Chichibu made| a formal report of the marriage to! S the goddess and the other deities of the Pantheon of which she is the central fgurte. Then a master of ceremonies handed the divine cup of sake, oF rice wine, to the prince and | his bride in turn. The actual wed- ding ceremony was completed when they drank this. Under court ritual only a few| princes and princesses of the blood | and court rituaiists and officials were eligible to witness the cere-| mony. Setsuko's parents, Tsunwo| Matsudaira and his wif: however, were - granted imperfal permission | and attended. No foreigners were| present. Further ceremonies were then | held in the Koreiden and Shiden sanctuaries within the palace to an- nounce the union to the imperial | ancestors. * The couple left the imperial pal- ace together at 10:30 o'clock in a horsedrawn closed carriage, still wearing their ancient ceremonial robes. The princess’ outer kimono was & brilliant Nile green and a gold half crown surmounted an elaborate coiffure of the medieval court. Not Pretensious ‘The keynote of the public proces- slon was its lack of ostentation. The crowds lining the streets were com- posed mostly of school girls. The| only escort was a platoon of caval-| 7y. The couple were driven to the prince’'s Omote-Machi mansion, an Occldental style dwelling near the imperial palace, which is to be their residence. This evening the couple returped te the imperial palace, this time in meodern dress to receive the con- gratulations of the emperor and empress.
