As described in the apocryphal Book of Tobit (2:11–14), the blind Tobit lives an impoverished life with Anna, his wife. Anna works on a loom to earn money for the couple, and one day, she is handsomely rewarded for her work with a goat. Tobit, shocked by the animal’s appearance, insists that Anna has stolen it, and he demands that she return it to its owners. Anna defends her integrity with brazen confidence: left hand perched on her hip, she enumerates the reasons for her innocence to her contrite husband.
