THE LEGEND OF THE WILLOW PATTERN PLATE


200 years ago in China there was Chang and Koong-se and the Mandarin. They lived in a palace. Koong-se fell in love with Chang.
The mandarin was furious. When he heard about it he built a high fence around the palace so Chang could not see Koong-se. But that did not stop Chang. He dressed up as a servant and went in to the palace. They escaped then the alarm was raised. The Mandarin chased after them with a whip but Koong-se and Chang escaped on to a island and they lived there for three years.
The duke saw them and he sent some men over and they got killed. The gods saw them and they turned them in to two little doves.
