A comparison taken from the ripe figges.

HOSEA 9. 10. I found Israel like grapes in the wil∣dernes, I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the figge tree at her first time, Cant. 2. 13. the figge tree putteth forth her greene figges; the greene figge was called grossus, and the ripe figge was called carica, matura fi∣cus. When it is said, that Christ came to the figge tree, and found nothing but leaues, for the time of figges were not as yet, Mark. 11. 13. it is meant of those first ripe figges, these are called greene, or untimely figges, Revel. 6. 13.

The first ripe figges are easily shaken off and fall a∣way. And Nahum alludeth to this, Nahum 3. 12. All thy strong holds shall be like figge-trees with the first ripe figges, if they be shaken, they shall fall into the mouth of the eater. And as men long most for the first ripe figs, so did the enemies for Nineve, and one shaking of the enemie should make them fall like the first ripe figges into their mouth.
