her locked and walled garden. Two elders, having previously said goodbye to each other, bump into each other again when they spy on her bathing. The two men realize they both lust for Susanna. When she makes her way back to her house, they accost her, demanding she have sexual intercourse with them. When she refuses, they have her arrested, claiming that the reason she sent her maids away was to be alone as she was having intercourse with a young man under a tree. </p><p>She refuses to be <a href="/wiki/Blackmail" title="Blackmail">blackmailed</a> and is arrested and about to be put to death for <a href="/wiki/Adultery" title="Adultery">adultery</a> when the young <a href="/wiki/Daniel_(biblical_figure)" title="Daniel (biblical figure)">Daniel</a> interrupts the proceedings, shouting that the elders should be interrogated to prevent the death of an innocent. </p><p>After being separated, the two men are cross-examined about details of what they saw but contradicted about the tree under which Susanna supposedly met her lover. In the <a href="/wiki/Greek_(language)" class="mw-redirect" title="Greek (language)">Greek</a> text, the names of the trees cited by the elders form <a href="/wiki/Puns" class="mw-redirect" title="Puns">puns</a> with the sentences given by Daniel. The first says they were under a <a href="/wiki/Pistacia_lentiscus" title="Pistacia lentiscus">mastic tree</a> (<span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language text"><span lang="grc">ὑπο σχίνον</span></span>, <span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language romanization"><i lang="grc-Latn">hypo schinon</i></span>), and Daniel says that an <a href="/wiki/Angel" title="Angel">angel</a> stands ready to cut (<span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language text"><span lang="grc">σχίσει</span></span>, <span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language romanization"><i lang="grc-Latn">schisei</i></span>) him in two. The second says they were under an evergreen <a href="/wiki/Oak" title="Oak">oak tree</a> (<span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language text"><span lang="grc">ὑπο πρίνον</span></span>, <span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language romanization"><i lang="grc-Latn">hypo prinon</i></span>), and Daniel says that an angel stands ready to saw (<span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language text"><span lang="grc">πρίσαι</span></span>, <span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language romanization"><i lang="grc-Latn">prisai</i></span>) him in two. </p><p>The great difference in size between a mastic and an oak makes the elders' lie plain to all the observers.
