Now, there is in our village a Ziziphus tree, one without thorns, valuable and much liked—if there was a popular assembly, one would call it under that tree. And a branch from that tree, if I cut it, would be suitable as a central pillar. So I took my axe and cut off one big branch from the Ziziphus. All the people were angry with me’ (CSOL II 12:24)
