Mnemonic


[y-] Yoshi is in [1] front of the [-ang] chapel where he finds a 秧 seedling growing in front of the chapel doors. He is hungry so he eats it. The priests see it and cream at him. They lock him in a 央 pillory and whip him with a big 禾 grain stalk because the 秧 seedling he ate is a holy 秧 seedling! In fact, now that it is in his stomach, the green skin of Yoshi starts sprouting little 秧 seedlings too as he is locked in the 央 pillory.
