"By climbing too high on the bough of honour, you may hang yourselves on the tree of dishonour. Thus Abimelech, ... a certain woman cast a piece of a mill-stone upon Abimelech's head, and broke his skull; then he called hastily to the young man his armour-bearer, and said unto him, 'Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men may not say of me, A woman slew him.' Poor man, he dies but his pride does not die!"

Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast a piece of a
millstone upon him from the wall, that he died in Thebez?
2 Samuel 11:21
