      • See what happens when you argue with your wife?
    • I called to my wife and said: “Where did this goat come from?
      Perhaps it was stolen! Give it back to its owners;
      we have no right to eat stolen food!”
      She said to me, “It was given to me as a bonus over and above my wages.”
      Yet I would not believe her,
      and told her to give it back to its owners.
      I became very angry with her over this.
      So she retorted: “Where are your charitable deeds now?
      Where are your virtuous acts?
      See! Your true character is finally showing itself!”
