জল সমূহৰ কাষত থকা গছবোৰৰ কোনো গছে নিজ উচ্চতাত গৰ্ব্ব নকৰিবৰ নিমিত্তে, বা তাৰ ওপৰ ভাগ মেঘস্পৰ্শী নকৰিবলৈ, নাইবা সেইবোৰৰ বৃহৎবোৰৰ মাজৰ পানী পান কৰাসকলৰ মাজৰ কোনেও উচ্চতাত নিজকে ওখ নেদেখুৱাবৰ বাবে, মই ইয়াকে কৰিলোঁ। কিয়নো সেই আটাইবোৰ মৃত্যুলৈ, পৃথিৱীৰ আধা ভাগলৈ, গাতলৈ নামিব লগাবোৰে সৈতে মনুষ্য সন্তান সকলৰ মাজত সমৰ্পিত হ’ল।”
