Esther 9:3-5 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

3. And she was leaning upon one of them, as if, out of delicateness and great tenderness, she were not able to bear carrying her own body.

4. And the other maid followed her lady, carrying her garment flowing on the ground.

5. Yet she had a rosy color pouring over her face, for, with gracious and bright eyes, she restrained a sorrowful soul and very great fear.
