But the olive tree said to them, Should I leave my fatness, with which by me they honor God and man, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?
"But a trouble weighed upon her, And perplexed her, night and morn, With the burthen of an honor Unto which she was not born. "Were it not better to bestow Some place and power on me? Then should thy praises with me grow, And share in my degree. "How know I, if thou shouldst me raise, That I should then raise thee? Perhaps great places and thy praise Do not so well agree" George Herbert
