  • Tallis' Lamentations of Jeremiah

    Part1 Here beginneth the lamentation of Jeremiah the prophet Aleph How doth the city sit solitary, that was full of people! How is she become as a widow! She that was great among the nations and princess among the provinces, how is she become tributary! Beth She weepeth sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; among all her lovers she hath none to comfort her; all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they are become her enemies. Jerusalem, Jerusalem, return unto the Lord thy God. Part 2 From the lamentations of the prophet Jeremiah: Gimmel Judah has gone into exile because of affliction and hard servitude; she dwells now among the nations, but finds no resting place; her pursuers have all overtaken her in the midst of her distress. Daleth The roads to Zion mourn, for none come to the festival; all her gates are desolate; her priests groan; her virgins have been afflicted, and she herself suffers bitterly. He Her foes have become the head; her enemies prosper, because the Lord has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions; her children have gone away, captives before the foe. Jerusalem, Jerusalem, return to the Lord your God.
