Old Testament/Stories of David (II Samuel 19:1 ff)

 . . . And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son. The men stole into the city that day as men steal in who are ashamed when they flee from battle. But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son! And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, You have shamed this day the faces of all thy servants, which this day have saved you life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives, and the lives of thy concubines; In that you lovest your enemies, and hate your friends. For you have declared this day, that you regardest neither princes nor servants: for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased thee well. Now therefore . . .
