TAres, [Greek or Hebrew], quasi [Greek or Hebrew], saith Varineus, quia amet triticum, illud ut umbra corpus sequitur, imitatus, & simul arescit, ac si esset de tritici genere: i. e. Because it loveth the Wheat, and imitates it, as the Shadow imitateth the Body, and groweth up with it, as if it were of the same kind with the Wheat. It should not (saith one) be translated Tares, but evil Seed. It is that which we call the deaf Ears, that grow up with the good Corn, and cannot be discerned till the Harvest,1 and then it proves naught; for Tares and Fitches are soon discerned and plucked up. The Enemy sowed Tares, v. 15. i. e. corrupted.

Ungodly Men are compared to Tares. Tares (saith a noted Writer) is a Sort of Grain that groweth in the Eastern Country; therefore those that are called Tares amongst us (I suppose) are not the Tares our Saviour alludes to.
