That which springs up on the moun- 
tain is as the aliph in the koran. 
That which springs up on the hill, is 
as the coconut palm which springs 
forth from the eye. 
That which springs up on the slopes 
is as the sugar palm which springs 
forth from the trunk. 
That which springs up on the plain 
is as the chestnut which springs 
forth from its fundament. 
That which springs up on the mire 
is as the sugar cane that bears its 
seed with it.
