For behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the breasts that never gave suck.
But woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck in those days!

Who rejoice exceedingly,\par\tab And are glad, when they can find the grave?
I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.
