The dancing girl was tried because she distracted the bricklayer by walking up and down on the road with jingling anklets while he was building up the wall.
The goldsmith was tried because he did not complete the jewelry orders given by the dancing girl and that’s why she had to go numerous times to check if the order was ready.
