Interpretation: Tradition reads the ban on plowing with an ox and an ass together as a law of kindness to animals, since they are unequal in strength. The sayings about plowing evil are read as teaching that deeds bring their results. In the primary lessons: in tales a farmer leaves his plow in the field and goes to the city; a plow buffalo pulls the plow; in dialect tales a plow-hand is a farm worker
