A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell by the road side, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it up.

And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. But when they were alone, those who were about him with the twelve, asked him the meaning of the parable.
