4. And when a great multitude came together, and they of every city resorted unto him, he spake by a parable:
5. The sower went forth to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden under foot, and the birds of the heaven devoured it.
6. And other fell on the rock; and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
