This refers to the fact that the leaf of this tree is the principal food of the silkworm. The mulberry is referred to very often by ancient writers; it is mentioned in the Bible, by the Greek and Roman authors. Ovid mentions it in his beautiful and pathetic story of Pyramus and Thisbe as the trysting place of the lovers. They are all of rapid growth, excepting the Persian, and make excellent shade.
