Zedekiah
Thou ravest, Jeremiah; awake, awake!
Jeremiah
[Unheeding] How still art thou now, my beloved.
Thy brightness, say, where hath it gone?
The voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride
No longer are heard among thy houses.
The market hath become desolate.
Quenched are the voice of joy,
The voice of gladness,
