which_o be_v a_o song_n of_o lamentation_n a_o song_n of_o lamentation_n so_o it_o be_v plain_o exprespress_v in_o the_o original_a and_o it_o be_v sufficient_o render_v in_o the_o septuagint_n but_o

a_o mourn_a song_n or_o psalm_n of_o lamentation_n which_o song_n be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v the_o public_a office_n of_o the_o church_n for_o that_o day_n he_o put_v it_o it_o into_o their_o hand_n by_o who_o that_o service_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v now_o that_o be_v chief_o by_o sing_v man_n and_o sing_a woman_n yet_o not_o so_o but_o that_o all_o the_o people_n join_v with_o they_o in_o sing_v the_o public_a office_n or_o psalm_n in_o their_o lamentation_n they_o do_v it_o still_o to_o this_o day_n say_v the_o writer_n of_o this_o book_n who_o be_v think_v to_o have_v be_v ezra_n the_o scribe_n sure_a enough_o it_o be_v one_o that_o live_v after_o the_o babylonian_a captivity_n for_o the_o last_o chapter_n and_o verse_n of_o this_o book_n speak_v of_o their_o return_n from_o that_o captivity_n and_o the_o same_o be_v the_o first_o verse_n of_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o ezra_n from_o hence_o it_o certain_o appear_v that_o till_o after_o the_o captivity_n that_o be_v for_o 140_o year_n they_o still_o continue_v their_o lamentation_n and_o still_o use_v this_o form_n of_o lamentation_n for_o the_o death_n of_o josiah_n and_o they_o do_v it_o not_o arbitrary_o but_o by_o a_o law_n which_o oblige_v they_o to_o it_o so_o my_o text_n say_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o be_v they_o which_o then_o govern_v make_v it_o a_o law_n upon_o israel_n that_o every_o

that_o which_o follow_v behold_v they_o be_v write_v in_o the_o lamentation_n they_o understand_v not_o of_o those_o lamentation_n in_o the_o bible_n but_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o jewish_a lamentation_n that_o be_v use_v upon_o their_o solemn_a fast-day_n those_o now_o extant_a in_o the_o bible_n be_v particular_o compose_v for_o the_o babylonian_a captivity_n which_o captivity_n have_v occasion_v so_o many_o fast-day_n in_o the_o year_n one_o for_o the_o besiege_n of_o jerusalem_n another_o for_o the_o take_n of_o it_o another_o for_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o temple_n another_o for_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o remnant_n with_o gedaliah_n these_o lamentation_n in_o aftertime_n swallow_v up_o the_o remembranee_n of_o all_o other_o lamentation_n and_o of_o this_o for_o josiah_n among_o the_o rest_n they_o remember_v it_o as_o i_o have_v say_v until_o ezra_n time_n when_o though_o perhaps_o they_o observe_v not_o the_o day_n yet_o they_o continue_v the_o office_n or_o form_n for_o it_o but_o how_o they_o sing_v not_o this_o by_o itself_o but_o say_v my_o text_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d they_o use_v this_o among_o their_o other_o lamentation_n but_o since_o his_o time_n as_o it_o may_v seem_v for_o the_o shorten_n of_o the_o office_n which_o be_v long_o upon_o those_o fast-day_n in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o captivity_n they_o leave_v out_o this_o particular_a office_n for_o the_o loss_n of_o josiah_n and_o so_o probable_o by_o this_o mean_v we_o come_v to_o lose_v the_o word_n of_o this_o lamentation_n but_o these_o four_o thing_n i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v from_o my_o text_n first_o that_o there_o be_v a_o general_a mourn_v for_o josiah_n at_o his_o death_n second_o that_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n make_v a_o particular_a office_n for_o it_o three_o that_o this_o office_n be_v use_v among_o other_o upon_o the_o day_n of_o lamentation_n four_o that_o this_o use_n be_v establish_v by_o a_o law_n upon_o israel_n and_o that_o this_o law_n be_v observe_v till_o ezra_n time_n that_o be_v for_o 140_o year_n even_o till_o the_o end_n of_o the_o babylonian_a captivity_n next_o i_o be_o to_o proceed_v to_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o institution_n the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v not_o for_o his_o sake_n that_o be_v take_v from_o they_o but_o for_o their_o sake_n from_o who_o he_o be_v take_v as_o for_o he_o there_o be_v
