It was like a species of the tamarind tree, bearing fruit which resembled grapes extremely fine; and its fragrance extended to a considerable distance. I exclaimed, How beautiful is this tree, and how delightful is its appearance!

As I have already said, they met together daily in the place which was delightful for its quiet and its brightness and applied themselves to their task.
