And
as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming
out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear
it after Jesus. And there followed him a great company of people, and of
women, which also bewailed and lamented him. But
Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me,
but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For, behold, the days
are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the
wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. Then shall
they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover
us.
For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the
dry? (Luke 23 v 26 - 31)
