* Then.
   It has been doubted whether Jeremiah acted prudently in this
   decision, as the event seems to indicate the contrary, and as
   it was the evident meaning of all his predictions that the
   Jews should not prosper in their own country till the
   expiration of seventy years.  But he was evidently influenced
   by the most unbounded love to his country, for whose welfare
   he had watched, prayed, and lived; and he now chose rather to
   share her adversities, her sorrows, her wants, her
   afflictions, and her disgrace, than to be the companion of
   princes, and to sit at the table of kings.  His patriotism was
   as unbounded as it was sincere:  he only ceased to live for
   country when he ceased to breathe.
