2. This affection of theirs will continue with them, and abide upon them: they will not hang down their heads for a day, and frolic it afterwards; hang down their heads for a day in a Fast, but as it ⟨p. 197⟩is said of Ahab, he walked heavily, So they will walk▪ Saith David in Psalm 42. My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, where is thy God? When I remember these things I pour out my soul in me, so you read it; but it should be, upon me: I pour out my soul upon me, as waters poured upon the ground: For I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holy day: My tears have been my meat day and night, 'tis not for a day, and there's an end, but day and night: This affection doth continue with them, and abide upon them, where ever they go they carry it as their burden.
