ZAIN.
Jerusalem hath remembred the days of her affliction, and prevarication of all her things worthy to be desired, which she had from the days of old, when her people fell in the ene∣mies hand, and there was no helper: the enemies have seen her, and have scorned her sabbaths.
HECH.
Jerusalem hath sinned a sin, therefore is she made unstable: all that did glorifie her, have despised her, because they have seen her ignominy: but she sighing is turned back∣ward.
TETH.
Her filthiness is on her feet, neither hath she remembred her end: she is pulled down exceedingly, not having a comforter. See, O Lord, mine affliction, because the enemy is exalted.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Convert unto the Lord thy God.
The Church having declared unto us the Despair and Blind∣ness of the Jews in their Afflictions, She also proposes unto us the Counsel Jesus Christ gave to his Disciples, when he grieved at the approaching of the Hour of his Passion; to wit, To watch and pray with him: shewing us, That it was not for him,

but for themselves, that he commanded them to watch and pray. She also teacheth us, That if the Apostles shewed so much fear whilst our Saviour suffered, how far greater reason have we to fear, since we our selves are the cause of his Sufferings.
R. My soul is sorrowful even unto death: stay here and watch with me; ye shall now behold a multitude that will environ me. Ye shall fly, and I will go to be immolated for you.
V. Behold, the hour approacheth, and the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of sinners: Ye shall fly away, and I will go to be immolated for ye.
