And euery shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailers, and as many as trade by sea, stood a farre off, 18And cryed when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like vnto this great citie? 19And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping, and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great citie, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea, by reason of her costlinesse, for in one houre is she made desolate. 20Reioyce ouer her thou heauen, and ye holy Apostles and Prophets, for God hath auenged you on her.
