.. Getting into the Temple

You always take us down

When we are in our prime. 

Devour my sweet rewards 

Yet I'll return in time. 

A child of mine will rise 

Out of his rotten bed. 

Up from a hidden pit 

Long after I am dead.

Take us down means harvesting. child will rise from rotten bed could mean a seed sprouting something new. And sweet rewards means it is something sweet.

It's a peach, of course. You can climb back to Meriloft from Curtis' house.

Give it to the guardians.
