24“O daughters of Israel, weep over Saul,
         Who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet,
         Who put ornaments of gold on your apparel.

25“How have the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle!
         Jonathan is slain on your high places.

26“I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan;
         You have been very pleasant to me.
         Your love to me was more wonderful
         Than the love of women.

27“How have the mighty fallen,
         And the weapons of war perished!”

[Sidenote: Nature of the Psalter] Corresponding to the book of Proverbs, itself a select library containing Israel's best gnomic literature, is the Psalter, the compendium of the nation's lyrical songs and hymns and prayers. It is the record of the soul experiences of the race. Its language is that of the heart, and its thoughts of common interest to worshipful humanity. It reflects almost every phase of religious feeling: penitence, doubt, remorse, confession, fear, faith, hope, adoration, and …

The Christ Crowned, the Fact
"When God sought a King for His people of old, He went to the fields to find him; A shepherd was he, with his crook and his lute And a following flock behind him.
