Look hither; behold I have planted another branch of the tree also;

and thou knowest that this spot of ground was poorer than the first.

But, behold the tree.

I have nourished it this long time,

and it hath brought forth much fruit;

that I may preserve it unto mine own self.

Look hither and behold the last.

Behold, this have I planted in a good spot of ground;

and I have nourished it this long time,

and only a part of the tree hath brought forth tame fruit,

and the other part of the tree hath brought forth wild fruit;

behold, I have nourished this tree like unto the others.
