This is the first part of Couperin's first Leçon de Ténèbres (Incipit Lamentio; Aleph; Beth; Ghimel). My favorite rendition from what I've heard so far:
Sophie Daneman, soprano
Ensemble "Les Arts Florissants", conducted by William Christie
Erato Disques, 1997

Incipit Lamentatio Jeremiae Prophetae:
Aleph. Quomodo sedet sola civitas plena populo? Facta
est quasi vidua, domina gentium: princeps provinciarum
facta est sub tributo.

Beth. Plorans ploravit in nocte, et lachrymae ejus in
maxillis ejus: non est qui consoletur eam ex omnibus
charis ejus, omnes amici ejus spreverunt eam, et facti
sunt ei inimici.

Ghimel. Migravit Juda propter afflictionem et
multitudinem servitutis; habitavit inter gentes, nec
invenit requiem: omnes persecutores ejus
apprehenderunt eam inter angustias.
