The vine: Dr. Shaw observes, that in Barbary, in the month of June the locusts are no sooner hatched than they collect themselves into compact bodies, each a "furlong or more square; and marching directly after they are come to life, make their way towards the sea and let nothing escape them, eating up everything that is green or juicy; not only the lesser vegetables, but the vine likewise, the fig-tree, the pomegranate, the palm, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field." Joel 1:10; Habakkuk 3:17-18
the pomegranate: Numbers 13:23; Psalms 92:12; Song of Solomon 2:3, Song of Solomon 4:13, Song of Solomon 7:7-9
