- The sutra
- The official, Riko, once asked Nansen to explain to him the old problem of the goose in the bottle.
- "If a man puts a gosling into a bottle," said Riko, "and feeds him until he is full grown, how can the man get the goose out without killing it or breaking the bottle?"
- Nansen gave a great clap with his hands and shouted, "Riko!"
- "Yes, master," said the official with a start.
- "See," said Nansen, "the goose is out!"
