Look at the jasmine, whose branches are green
as topaz, and its stems and leaves –
while its blossoms are white as bdellium.
With carnelian red in its shoot
it looks like a pallid boy who’s shedding
the blood of innocent men with his hand.

– Shmuel Ha’Nagid (993-1056)
Field Commander and Chief of Staff for Baiis, Berber King of Granada
