One summer night the priest was called away, to perform a Buddhist service at the house of a dead parishioner; and he went there with his acolyte, leaving Hoichi alone in the temple. It was a hot night; and the blind man sought to cool himself on the verandah before his sleeping-room. The verandah overlooked a small garden in the rear of the Amidaji. There Hoichi waited for the priest’s return, and tried to relieve his solitude by practicing upon his biwa. Midnight passed; and the priest did not appear. But the atmosphere was still too warm for comfort within doors; and Hoichi remained outside. At last he heard steps approaching from the back gate. Somebody crossed the garden, advanced to the verandah, and halted directly in front of him—but it was not the priest. A deep voice called the blind man’s name—abruptly and unceremoniously, in the manner of a samurai summoning an inferior:—

“Hoichi!”

“Hai!” answered the blind man, frightened by the menace in the voice,—”I am blind!—I cannot know who calls!”

“There is nothing to fear,” the stranger exclaimed, speaking more gently.

“I am stopping near this temple, and have been sent to you with a message. My present lord, a person of exceedingly high rank, is now staying in Akamagaseki, with many noble attendants.

初心者にはわからない・・・・。

　　　　　　　　　　　語源から説明　　
 

アカウントを検索してみました。
アカウント（account）とは、インターネット上の様々なサービスやコンピュータそのものにログインするための権利のことです。 例えば、IP電話ソフトの代表格であるLINEやスカイプ、Facebook・ミクシィなどのSNSを利用する際、「事前にアカウントを作成してください」と言われると思います。 これは、「事前に権利を取得してください」という意味です。

すぐに知ることができますので、検索してみるのもいいのではないかと思います。
