For if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree; how much more shall these, which are the natural 'branches', be grafted into their own olive tree?
For if thou art kit doun of þe kyndeli wielde olyue tre, and ayens kynd art set in to a good olyue tre, hou myche more þei þat ben bi kynde, schulen be set in her olyue tree?
