Botanical Properties and Benefits of Black Mulberry

A Short Story

In this story from Greek mythology, our main heroes are Pyramus and Thisbe. Pyramus and Thisbe were two young people who loved each other very much. Although these two people loved each other very much, their families did not support their love. Pyramus and Thisbe decided to run away together. After they both escaped from home, they decided to meet under a mulberry tree.

Thisbe arrived early and started to wait for her lover under the mulberry tree. While waiting, she heard a sound and she hid in a cave, while running, the shawl around her neck fell to the ground. The voice Thisbe heard belonged to a lion and the lion began to destroy the shawl on the ground. When Pyramus reached the mulberry tree, he was very sad to see the bloody shawl on the ground. Pyramus, thinking Thisbe is dead, ends his life with a dagger. When Thisbe came out of the cave, she saw Pyramus dead and lying under a mulberry tree. Thisbe's tears flowed on the leaves of the mulberry tree.
