Summary:
"The Tale of the Mandarin Ducks: A greedy lord captures a drake to enjoy its beautiful plumage, separating a pair of Mandarin ducks that had always stayed together. A compassionate couple reunites the pair of ducks, but when the lord discovers the missing drake, he banishes them both, deciding they must be executed. In the end the couple is saved - but by whom? The Stonecutter: Tasaku is a lowly cutter of stone who works diligently each day, cutting stone from a mountain. One day he witnesses a prince pass by and decides he too wants wealth and power. He asks the spirits to let him become a prince... then the sun... then the clouds... and finally a mountain... when he finds himself being chipped away at by a lowly stonecutter"--Container.
