Genesis41:5
5 And he slept, and dreamed the second time: and behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
Which are fit and proper resemblances of the thing here intended, both because the fertility of a Land doth mainly consist in the abundance and goodness of these, and because, ears of Corn appearing to any in a dream did, in the judgment of the Egyptian wise-men, signifie years, as Iosephus notes.
