Lamentations3:53
Ver. 53. They have cut off my life in the dungeon] Where I lead a lifeleſſe life, ſuch as did Roger Biſhop of Salisbury in King Stephens time, who ſuſtained ſuch miſeries in priſon, ut vivere noluerit, mori neſcierit, that live he would not, and yet dye he could not.
And caſt a ſtone upon me] As they did upon the mouths of dens, dungeons or ſepulchers, to make ſure work. The Chaldee hath it, they ſtoned me.
