5 Then left I the meditations wherein I was, and spoke to her in anger, saying,

6 "Thou foolish woman above all others, seest thou not our mourning, and what happeneth unto us?

7 How that Zion our mother is full of all heaviness, and much humbled, mourning very sorely?

8 And now, seeing we all mourn and are sad, for we are all in heaviness, art thou grieved for one son?

9 For ask the earth, and she shall tell thee that it is she which ought to mourn for the fall of so many that grow upon her.
