The Lament for the Ruined Vine

Ezekiel 19:10-14

Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she brought foorth fruite and branches by the abundant waters,

And she had strong rods for the scepters of them that beare rule, and her stature was exalted among the branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches.

But she was plucked vp in wrath: she was cast downe to the ground, and the East winde dried vp her fruite: her branches were broken, and withered: as for the rod of her strength, the fire consumed it.

And now she is planted in the wildernes in a drie and thirstie ground.

And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, which hath deuoured her fruite, so that she hath no strong rod to be a scepter to rule: this is a lamentation and shalbe for a lamentation.
