* Oh my Lord.
"No paraphrase," says Dr. A. Clarke, "can heighten the effect
of Judah's address to Joseph. To add, would be to diminish
its excellence; to attempt to explain, would be to obscure
its beauties; to clothe the ideas in other language than that
of Judah, and his translators in our Bible, would ruin its
energy, and destroy its influence. It is perhaps one of the
most tender, affecting pieces of natural oratory ever spoken
or penned: and we need not wonder to find that, when Joseph
heard it, he could not refrain himself, but wept aloud. His
soul must have been insensible beyond what is common to human
nature, had he not immediately yielded to a speech so
delicately tender, and so powerfully impressive."
