No dew nor rain be on you, And fields of heave-offerings!

They are loved and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they have not been parted. Than eagles they have been lighter, Than lions they have been mightier! 24 Daughters of Israel! for Saul weep ye, Who is clothing you `in' scarlet with delights. Who is lifting up ornaments of gold on your clothing. 25 How have the mighty fallen In the midst of the battle! Jonathan! on thy high places wounded! 26 I am in distress for thee, my brother Jonathan, Very pleasant wast thou to me; Wonderful was thy love to me, Above the love of women! 27 How have the mighty fallen, Yea, the weapons of war perish!'
