CHAP. XVII.
When from Tare seeds,1 you see choice Wheat to grow,
- 1Upon reaping the same we sow.
Then from your lusts, may joy and comfort flow.
OBSERVATION.
God gives to every seed its own body, 1 Cor. 15. 38. At first he created every Tree and herb of the field, having its seed in it self, for the conservation of the species; and they all inviolably observe the Law of their Creation. All fruits naturally rise out of the seeds, and roots proper to them. Men do not gather grapes of thorns, nor figs of thistles.
