You have put me in the depths of the pit,
 in the regions dark and deep.
— Psalm 88:6

He who now feebly expounds these words knows within himself more than he would care or dare to tell of the abysses of inward anguish… Those who know this bitterness by experience will sympathise, but from others it would be idle to expect pity, nor would their pity be worth the having if it could be obtained.

— Charles Spurgeon, The Treasury of David
