In context
36 Againe he spake also vnto them a parable, No man putteth a piece of a newe garment into an olde vesture: for then the newe renteth it, and the piece taken out of the newe, agreeth not with the olde.
37 Also no man powreth newe wine into olde vessels: for then ye new wine wil breake the vessels, and it will runne out, and the vessels will perish:
38 But newe wine must be powred into newe vessels: so both are preserued.
39 Also no man that drinketh olde wine, straightway desireth newe: for he sayth, The olde is more profitable.
