By night on my bed When others compose themselves to sleep, my affections were working toward him. I sought him I sought for Christ's gracious and powerful presence. I sought him This repetition denotes her perseverance and unweariedness in seeking him; but found him not For he had withdrawn the manifestations of his love from me, either because I had not sought him diligently, or because I had abused his favour.
