Pyramus and Thisbe (Pyramus et Thisbe)
Pyramus and Thisbe lived next door and spoke through a crack in the wall, because their families would not let them meet. They agreed to meet outside the city. Thisbe ran from a lion, and Pyramus found her scarf and thought she had been killed. The story ends in sorrow, and the mulberry turns dark.
