7 Yf a tre be cutt downe, there is some hope yet, that it will sproute and shute forth the braunches againe:
8 For though a rote be waxen olde and deed in the grounde, yet whe the stocke
9 getteth the sent of water, it will budde, and brynge forth bowes, like as when it was first planted.
10 But as for man, when he is deed, perished and consumed awaye, what becommeth of him?
11 The floudes when they be dryed vp, & the ryuers when they be emptie, are fylled agayne thorow the flowinge waters of the see:
12 but when man slepeth, he ryseth not agayne, vntill the heauen perish: he shal not wake vp ner ryse out of his slepe.
