Mark 16:9-20 is in the Diatesseron of Tatian (died A.D. 175), and in the writings of Justin (died A.D. 165).

////////////////////////////////////////////
Justin (died A.D. 165), the Peshitta, and the by-A.D. 175 Diatesseron lack an added 'mourning' to Mt 2:18.
Justin

Matthew 2:18 (HCSB)
A voice was heard in Ramah,
weeping,[a: Other mss read _Ramah, lamentation, and weeping,_] and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children;
and she refused to be consoled,
because they were no more.
Tatian included merely 3 and not 4 terms synonymous with 'mourning.' Of course, in making his consolidation of the 4 Gospels, he didn't include 100% of their text.
Diatesseron 3:18
A voice was heard in Ramah,
Weeping and much lamentation;
Rachel weeping for her children,
And not willing to be consoled for their loss.
The original Aramaic of the Peshitta has merely 3 and not 4 terms synonymous with 'mourning':
Matthew 2:18 (based on Younan)
"A voice was heard in Ramtha,
great crying and wailing.
Rakhiel crying for her sons
and not desiring to be comforted,
because they were not."
