The sorrow and lament experienced by the prophet Jeremiah as he witnessed the exile of the Jewish nation into Babylonian captivity is palpable in this text from Lamentations 1:12. These words are often used in Christian tradition on Holy Saturday. Its mournfulness stands in sharp contrast to the exultation of the resurrection. The image evoked in this setting is that of a crowd, mourning at the foot of the cross on which Jesus had just died. The listener: a person simply passing through this terrible scene, surrounded by cries of sorrow.
