Lamentations1:18
18 ¶ The LORD is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment : hear, I pray you, all people, and behold my sorrow: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity .
The Prophet either directeth those that feared God what they should say, or expresseth what many of them did say in the name of the rest, acknowledging both the Lords justice, and faithfulness, because they had been disobedient to the Commandments of God.
In these words the Prophet onely personates a passionate Woman begging pity of all because her children were taken from her.
