Lamentations 2:10

The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.

The elders ... sit upon the ground - (Job 2:12). The "elders," by their example, would draw the others to violent grief.

The virgins - who usually are so anxious to set off their personal appearance to advantage, "hang down their heads to the ground").

[Kaph (k)]
