2 Chronicles35:25

25 And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah, and all the singing men, and the singing women spake to Josiah in their lamentations to this day , and made an ordinance in Israel, and behold, they are written in the lamentations .

In all their succeeding Lamentations for their publick Calamities, and for the ruine of their City, and Temple, and State, and Church, they remembred Josiahs death as their first and most fatal Blow, and as that which opened the Flood-gates to all their following Miseries, and it was ordained that they should do, as the next words intimate.

Either in that Canonical Book of Jeremies Lamentations or in some other Volume of mournful Ditties made by divers Persons upon occasion of their following Calamities, which is since lost.
