10. And the trees said to the fig tree, Come you, and reign over us.
11. But the fig tree said unto them, Should I forsake my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to be promoted over the trees?
12. Then said the trees unto the vine, Come you, and reign over us.
13. And the vine said unto them, Should I leave my wine, which cheers God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees?
