Mournful Iudah shreeks and cries br At the obsequies br Of their babes, that cry br More that they lose the paps, then that they die. br He that came with life to all, br Brings the babes a funeral, br To redeem from slaughter Him br Who did redeem us all from sin. br They like Himself went spotless hence, br A sacrifice to Innocence; br Which now does ride br Trampling upon Herod's pride: br Passing from their fontinels of clay br To heaven, a milky and a bloody way. br All their tears and groans are dead br And they to rest and glory fled. br Lord, Who wert pleased so many babes should fall br Whil'st each sword hop'd that every of the all br Was the desirèd king: make us to be br In innocence like them, in glory, Thee.
