Lowth on Acrostics #2

What about Lamentations 2? The verses are much longer. We could observe the zaqef-qatan as a major pause. Its shape is a mordent for the prose books, like the revia in the poetry. But it is inconsistently used. I have applied a few by hand. The line and syllable counts are much longer and greater than the poetry. Here too are more examples of revia that are clearly not disjunctive.

Here is a pdf so you can imagine the extensive lamentation that could be built from even a verse or two of this chapter. There are obviously extensive differences between Psalms 111-112 and this more massive work. I don't know why Lowth would describe them as 'similar' or perfect. None of the acrostics of Lamentations is perfect since peh and ayin are reversed in all the acrostics of Lamentations.

אֵיכָה֩ יָעִ֨יב בְּאַפּ֤וֹ ׀ אֲדֹנָי֙ אֶת־בַּת־צִיּ֔וֹן הִשְׁלִ֤יךְ מִשָּׁמַ֙יִם֙ אֶ֔רֶץ תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וְלֹא־זָכַ֥ר הֲדֹם־רַגְלָ֖יו בְּי֥וֹם אַפּֽוֹ ס		1 Ah, how my Lord has thickly clouded in his anger the daughter of Zion. He has cast down from heaven to earth the adornment of Israel, and he has not remembered his footstool in the day of his anger.

He has overthrown in his fury the enclosures of the daughter of Judah. He has touched on the earth. He has profaned her kingdom and her nobility.

He has turned back his right hand from the face of an enemy, and he has kindled in Jacob, as a fiery flame devours round about.

In the tent of the daughter of Zion, he poured out as fire his heat.

He has swallowed Israel. He has swallowed all her citadels. He has destroyed his own enclosures. And he has increased in the daughter of Judah her rueful moaning.
