36
The two men gave the following testimony: "We were walking in the gardens when this woman came in with her two servant women. She locked the main gates and asked the servants to leave.
37
Then a young man who had been hiding in the gardens came to her, and they lay down together.
38
We were in a corner of the gardens, and when we saw what was happening, we ran over
39
and caught them in the act. We tried to hold on to the man, but he was too strong for us. He ran and opened the gates and got away,
40
but we were able to hold the woman. We asked her who the man was, but she refused to tell us. We swear that our testimony is true."
