7. A tree has hope: if it has been cut, it turns green again, and its branches spring forth.
8. If its roots grow old in the earth, and its trunk passes into dust,
9. at the scent of water, it will sprout and bring forth leaves, as when it had first been planted.
10. Truly, when a man dies, and has been left unprotected, and has decayed, I ask you where is he?
