⁴ “Because the ^(A)ground is ^[a]cracked,
For there has been ^(B)no rain on the land;
The ^(C)farmers have been put to shame,
They have covered their heads.

“There is ^(A)wailing in all the plazas,
And in all the streets they say, ‘Alas! Alas!’
They also call the ^(B)farmer to mourning
And ^[a](C)professional mourners to lamentation.
