to_o be_v destroy_v etc._n etc._n then_o the_o drift_n of_o the_o penman_n of_o this_o psalm_n may_v be_v to_o keep_v the_o people_n from_o be_v too_o much_o deject_v &_o especial_o from_o be_v

2._o we_o hang_v our_o harp_n upon_o the_o willow_n in_o the_o midst_n thereof_o because_o it_o may_v seem_v very_o improbable_a that_o the_o levite_n shall_v have_v so_o much_o leisure_n as_o to_o mind_v the_o save_n of_o the_o musical_a instrument_n of_o the_o temple_n which_o be_v all_o comprehend_v under_o the_o harp_v here_o mention_v when_o the_o babylonian_n be_v with_o such_o rage_n burn_v the_o city_n &_o temple_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o make_v such_o a_o slaughter_n as_o they_o do_v among_o the_o inhabitant_n and_o when_o therefore_o they_o must_v needs_o have_v enough_o to_o do_v to_o secure_v their_o own_o life_n or_o that_o the_o merciless_a plunder_v soldier_n will_v show_v they_o so_o much_o favour_n as_o to_o let_v they_o retain_v their_o musical_a instrument_n therefore_o some_o expositor_n take_v these_o word_n we_o hang_v our_o harp_n upon_o the_o willow_n to_o be_v only_o a_o figurative_a proverbial_a expression_n mean_v only_o that_o there_o they_o bad_a adieu_n to_o their_o musical_a instrument_n be_v bring_v into_o such_o a_o sad_a and_o doleful_a condition_n but_o because_o there_o follow_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n a_o historical_a relation_n of_o what_o the_o babylonian_n say_v to_o they_o and_o what_o they_o answer_v again_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o psalmist_n relate_v what_o be_v actual_o do_v namely_o that_o they_o do_v indeed_o hang_v up_o their_o harp_n upon_o the_o willow_n in_o the_o open_a field_n thereby_o show_v how_o little_o they_o regard_v they_o and_o give_v the_o babylonian_n to_o understand_v in_o who_o sight_n they_o do_v this_o that_o the_o pleasant_a shade_n of_o those_o willow_n by_o the_o river_n side_n can_v not_o tempt_v they_o to_o make_v use_n of_o their_o musical_a delight_n when_o as_o their_o soul_n be_v so_o oppress_v with_o sorrow_n for_o the_o misery_n of_o zion_n neither_o seem_v it_o to_o i_o so_o improbable_a either_o that_o the_o levite_n shall_v in_o that_o confusion_n of_o the_o sack_n of_o jerusalem_n endeavour_n with_o all_o solicitous_a care_n to_o reserve_v to_o themselves_o and_o to_o carry_v away_o with_o they_o those_o holy_a precious_a remainder_n of_o the_o temple_n utensil_n as_o memorial_n of_o god_n zion_n and_o the_o delight_n they_o have_v former_o take_v in_o god_n worship_n there_o and_o which_o in_o god_n good_a time_n they_o may_v hope_v again_o to_o use_v in_o the_o holy_a service_n of_o god_n as_o they_o have_v former_o do_v and_o haply_o as_o hope_v they_o may_v allay_v their_o sorrow_n in_o their_o captivity_n by_o some_o musical_a refresh_n though_o afterward_o they_o find_v themselves_o so_o overpress_v with_o sorrow_n that_o they_o can_v not_o take_v any_o delight_n therein_o or_o that_o the_o babylonian_n shall_v afford_v this_o favour_n especial_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o they_o may_v out_o of_o curiosity_n desire_v to_o hear_v what_o the_o skill_n of_o the_o hebrew_n be_v in_o those_o kind_n of_o melody_n for_o which_o also_o see_v the_o follow_a verse_n verse_n 3._o for_o etc._n etc._n this_o word_n show_v that_o here_o another_o reason_n be_v give_v why_o they_o hang_v up_o their_o harp_n upon_o the_o willow_n they_o that_o carry_v we_o away_o captive_n require_v of_o we_o a_o song_n &_o they_o that_o waste_v we_o that_o be_v that_o sack_v we_o &_o pillage_v we_o &_o lay_v our_o city_n on_o heap_n as_o the_o hebrew_n word_n signify_v require_v of_o we_o mirth_n to_o wit_n not_o so_o much_o out_o of_o a_o desire_n to_o delight_v themselves_o with_o the_o music_n of_o the_o hebrew_n or_o to_o hear_v what_o their_o skill_n be_v in_o play_v &_o sing_v though_o that_o some_o may_v have_v respect_n to_o as_o be_v before_o note_v as_o by_o way_n of_o scoff_v at_o they_o &_o insult_v over_o they_o sing_v we_o say_v they_o one_o of_o the_o song_n of_o zion_n as_o if_o they_o have_v say_v what_o be_v your_o god_n dead_a to_o who_o you_o be_v wont_a to_o sing_v if_o he_o be_v former_o delight_v with_o your_o music_n why_o do_v you_o give_v it_o over_o and_o observable_a it_o be_v that_o the_o psalmist_n do_v express_v this_o that_o it_o be_v they_o that_o carry_v they_o away_o captive_n that_o require_v this_o of_o they_o for_o this_o be_v 1._o to_o imply_v how_o unreasonable_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v that_o they_o that_o have_v bring_v they_o into_o such_o a_o sad_a condition_n shall_v require_v mirth_n of_o they_o &_o 2._o to_o imply_v the_o courage_n of_o these_o poor_a captive_n that_o be_v in_o bondage_n can_v yet_o in_o this_o refuse_n to_o
