One day a bull climbed into Mulla's yard and trampled all the flowers.
Mulla grabbed a stick and chased the bull, but could not catch up with him.
A few days later, Mulla saw that the owner of this bull had harnessed it to a cart and was riding along the road. The mullah began to hit the bull with his club with all his might.
“Mulla,” his owner shouted, “what are you doing?” Why are you beating my beast?
“Shut up,” Mulla replied, “your bull knows why I’m beating him.” See how he hung his head!
