The poor fatherless baby of eight months is now the utterly broken-hearted and crushed widow of forty-two.
Queen VictoriaSing to God, sing in praise of his name, extol him who rides on the clouds; rejoice before him—his name is the Lord. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.
Bible (Old Testament)
