(Page 2)

Shee never resteth weeping by night, and the
teares are on her cheeks, of all her loving freends
shee hath no comforter, her neighbours are turnd
against her, and are becom[ing] her Enimyes.
Ghimel no reward all is taken
from her, shee is waigned.
Judah hath left her hous for affliction and
to much slavery. Shee dwelleth among the
Hethen and findeth no rest among them
All that pursue her, overtake her, and laye
hold on her, in narrow places.

Daleth No Entrance all waste.

The wayes of Sion sorrow, that ther is no
going to the Synagogue, and that all her
gates are desolate. Her Priests sighe, and
her virgines are sad, and that his greevous
to her.

He, no beholding, nor hold-

ing up the head for her.

Her Beseegers are the cheeff and her Enimyes
prosper, for the Everlasting hath made her sad,
for her mighty transgressions; her children are
gon into captivity before the Beseeger.

Vav no [illegible], no fastning to-

gether, no company, but all alone.

And from the town of Sion all her gayeness
is gone, all her Princes are like deer that
can finde no feeding and wax feeble before
the hunter.

Zain, no hearing, no Audience

nor helpers, are they never so sore

they their seventh day is derided.

Jerusalem calleth to minde the dayes of her
misery and banishments, and all her pleasant
things which wer of ancient time; when her people
fell by the hand of the Beseeger, and had no help
-ers & the Beseeger ^looked^ saw ^upon^ her and laughed at her
Sabbathings.

Cheth, no strewing, the futilitynes of

her sinn is discovered, and her freends

count her ^vile^ and fall away at her overthrow

like a [illegible] brak Job: 6. shee is sad &

ashamed of her nakedness.

Jerusalem hath sinned a[n] sinn, therefor she is rejected
All that honored her, debase her because they have
seen her nakedness, and shee also sigheth and
turneth backward.
