Mnemonic


[g-] Gandalf is in the [3] basement of the [-ang] chapel where he is sitting on the top of a small 崗 hillock. A mountain goat comes up to him wearing a 冂 hood. Gandalf takes the 冂 hood off the mountain goat and then wonders why it is on a basement 崗 hillock instead of a 山 mountain. Probably due to some scheming by the priests.
