11. Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat. The people were slain in flocks, with ease and frequency. Not with the
dignity of sacrifice, but with the cruelty of the butcher, were they put to
death. And hast scattered us among the heathen. Many were carried into
captivity, far off from the public worship of the temple. All this is ascribed
to the Lord. It is well to trace the hand of God in our sorrows, for it is
surely there.
