I see …
Zedekiah
[Grappling with him, bursts out in a fury] Naught more shalt thou see! I will have thee blinded.
Jeremiah
[Stares around, as if suddenly and dreadfully awakened. Then laughing loudly, he chants with renewed frenzy]
Me?
Blind me? Nay, ruthless one,
Not such is the purpose of God.
Know well that one shall be blinded
Ere these days draw to a close.
