Vine and Fig Tree

Representative Text

And ev'ryone beneath the vine and fig tree
shall live in peace and have no fear.
And everyone beneath the vine and fig tree
shall live in peace and have no fear.
And into plough shares turn their swords,
nations shall learn war no more.
And into plough-shares turn their swords,
nations shall learn war no more.
