Psalm 44
1. The church, in memory of former favors
7. complains of her present evils
17. professing her integrity,
24. she fervently prays for helpfulness














(15) The shame.--Better take the face as a second object--shame hath covered me as to my face, i.e., covered my face. Though the record of the facts of a sad reality, these verses have also the value of a prophecy sadder still. Twenty centuries of misery are summed up in these few lines, which have been most literally repeated,

"By the torture, prolonged from age to age,

By the infamy, Israel's heritage;

By the Ghetto's plague, by the garb's disgrace,

By the badge of shame, by the felon's place."

R. BROWNING: Holy Cross Day.

Verse 15. - My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me (see the comment on ver. 9).
