First Speaker

Jeremiah knows nothing about it yet! The prophet knows nothing.

Second Speaker

He does not know what happened yesterday, and yet he would tell us what will happen to-morrow.

Jeremiah

What is it that I do not yet know? What makes you so joyful? It must be something of ill omen.

First Speaker

He says it is something of ill omen. It is that, in very truth, for your wishes.

Second Speaker

Your king is slain and welters in his blood.
