Or, is consumed, with grief for want of them, and with vehement desire to enjoy them, and with the deferring and disappointment of his hopes. See Prov. 13. 12.

To enter into the outward Court with the people, and to see what is done by the Priests in the inner Court, and to joyn with them in their Religious Exercises.

With a doleful cry, of which this word is used also, Lament. 2. 19. which elsewhere and commonly signifies a joyful shout. The sence is, my soul and body are pained; or the passion of my heart maketh my tongue cry out.
