Defecerunt præ lacrimis oculi mei, conturbata sunt viscera mea; effusum est in terra jecur meum super contritione filiæ populi mei, cum deficeret parvulus et lactens in plateis oppidi.
Caph. My eyes have failed with weeping, my bowels are troubled: my liver is poured out upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people, when the children, and the sucklings, fainted away in the streets of the city.
Oculos prae lacrimas meo fefeci, conturba es visceras meo; effunde es in terra iecure meo super contritione de filia de populo meo, cum defice parvulo et lactente in plateas de oppido.
