2 Samuel 11:26

She mourned for her husband - The whole of her conduct indicates that she observed the form without feeling the power of sorrow.

She lost a captain and got a king for her spouse; this must have been deep affliction indeed: and therefore: -

- Lachrymas non sponte cadentes Effudit;

gemitusque expressit pectore laeto .

"She shed reluctant tears,

and forced out groans from a joyful heart.
