Dirge -
8. Her temple is become as a man that was glori-
9. Ous: her vessels of glory are carried away into captivity, her infants are slain in her streets, her young men
10. With the sword of the enemy. What nation hath not inherited her palaces, and gotten possession of her spoils?
11. Her adorning is all taken away; instead of a free woman she is become
12. A bond woman: and, behold, our holy things and our beauty and our glory are laid waste, and the Gentiles have
13. Profaned them. Wherefore should we live any longer?
14. And Mattathias and his sons rent their clothes, and put on sackcloth, and mourned exceedingly.
