[Avodah] Ruth on Shavuot

I would try the Yalkut-Ruth, which the Mishna Brura 490:9:(17) quotes
as saying: "The connection between Ruth and Azeres and Matan Torah is
to teach us that the Torah is given through suffering, poverty, etc."

You could also try the Avudraham which the Rema (ibid) mentions as the
source for reading Ruth on Shavuot.
