The poor have no right to take the single fallen grapes, or the under-developed grape-clusters, until the owner has begun gathering the grapes of his vineyard for himself. “And how much should he have gathered for himself before the poor acquire the right to their dues? Three grape-clusters which can produce a revi’ith of wine.”* * Zeraim, Hilchoth Matnoth Ani’im IV, 22
