Haydock's commentary

For him. We may apply to her tears those words of Lucan:

Lachrymas non spontè cadentes

Effudit, gemitusque expressit pectore læto.

"None affected more sorrow for the death of Germanicus, than those who rejoiced the most at that event." (Tacitus, An. ii.)

The mourning for the dead usually lasted seven days; (Ecclesiasticus xxii. 13.) and after that period, David seems to have married Bethsabee. (Abulensis, q. 21.)
