79. Children Who Return Oyasama once told Jirokichi Kita the following: "Among the many children who return to Jiba some people pack things and take them in carts; some put things in a wrapping cloth and carry them on their backs; some put as many things as possible in a torn wrapping cloth and carry them in their arms; and some lose everything before they reach home."

七九　帰って来る子供 　 教祖が、ある時、喜多治郎吉に、 　 「多く寄り来る、帰って来る子供のその中に、荷作りして車に積んで持って行くような者もあるで。又、風呂敷包みにして背負って行く人もあるで。又、破れ風呂敷に一杯入れて提げて行く人もある。うちへかえるまでには、何んにもなくなってしまう輩もあるで。」 と、お聞かせ下された。
