Lamentations5:8

Ver. 8. Servants have ruled over us] And they are uſually moſt inſolent; as was Tobiah the ſervant, Neh. 2.19. Cicero, after the defeat given to Pompey, complaineth in a certain Epiſtle, Lords we could not away with, and now we are forced to ſerve our fellow-ſervant. This was Canaans curſe to be a ſervant of ſervants, Gen. 9.25. See the Notes there.
