Sepia-toned illustration on aged paper, rectangular with rough cut edges. A central rectangular frame contains a drawing of a bearded man sitting on the ground with arms raised. He has a loincloth and no shirt. Two other figures, one on either side, kneel on the ground, heads bowed. Mountains and cloudy sky are in the background. A decorative border surrounds the illustration. Text above reads "Lo let that night be solitary & let no joyful voice come therein." Text below reads "Let the Day perish wherein I was Born And they sat down with him upon the ground seven days & seven nights & none spake a word unto him for they saw that his grief was very great." A wavy line design borders the bottom.
