O thou who because of (addiction to) a single leaf has been
left without (enjoyment of) a (whole) orchard,
thou art like the worm which (desire for) a leaf has driven away from (deprived of) the vineyard.
When Grace awakened this worm,
this worm devoured the dragon of ignorance.
The worm became a vineyard full of fruit trees:
even so is the blessed man transformed."
