"A woman, a carpet and a walnut tree..."

The more you beat them the better they be.

I beat the carpet and the walnut tree,
But as for the wife, well she beats me!

'The old custom of beating a walnut-tree was carried out firstly to fetch down the fruit and secondly to break the long shoots and
so encourage the production of short fruiting spurs': M. Hadfield British Trees (1957) Cf. L. nux, asinus, mulier verbere opus
habent, a nut tree, an ass, and a woman need a beating.
