Anonymous Chinese, Mustard Seed Garden, 19th cent.
"The kingdom of God is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all
shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can
make nests in its shade [NRSV, Mark 4:31-32]."
