Psalm 125 (Vulg., 124):
Scene, Secular: Banquet -- In city street lined with houses, men, seated on benches, are gathered around table, on which are cups filled with wine and platters of food. To right, beside fire, men and women dance, hand-in-hand, around church. (Scene, Sports and Games: Dancing) In background, street continues, inhabited by other figures dancing around second fire.
