Ezekiel27:32

32 And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee, saying, What city is like Tyrus, like the destroyed in the midst of the sea ?

In their sorrowful speeches of Tyrus.

Into their mouths, or with a composed, significant, and comprehensive form of speech to shew much grief in few words.

A few years since no city like her in beauty, riches, glory, and joy, now none like her in all the contraries.

Now no more Tyrus the flourishing, the renowned, the Mart of Nations, and the stately built; but now the destroyed, the silent overwhelmed with grief, which was full of Songs.

Alas! what was once her safeguard, is now her grave, what enricht her once hath now swallowed all up at once.
