He showed me many trees which had no leaves, and they seemed to me as if withered; for they were all alike. And he said to me: Seest thou these trees? I see them, sir, I say. They are all alike, and they are withered.

He said to me: These trees which thou seest are they that dwell in this world. And why, sir, I say, are they as though withered and all alike?
3
Because, he said, neither the righteous are distinguishable, nor the sinners in this world, but they are alike. For this world is winter to the righteous, and they are not distinguishable because they dwell with the sinners.
