Ecclesiastes 12:5. And the almond tree shall flourish,
The hair is white and gray, like the early peach or almond tree in the beginning of the year.
Ecclesiastes 12:5. And the grasshopper shall be a burden,

Ecclesiastes 12:5. And desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets; or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken,
Before the spinal cord is broken, or the skull becomes emptied of the living inhabitants.
