Title
Kozuka with Shôki the Demon Queller
Description
English: Standing on the left side of the kozuka is Shôki the demon queller. He is identifiable by his hat and beard. Shôki was an aspiring scholar in China who committed suicide when he failed the examinations to become a government official. The emperor, when he realized the degree of Shôki's commitment to service, awarded him the title of doctor. Shôki then appeared to the emperor in a dream where he vowed to protect the empire from demons to show his gratitude.
