I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What doeth it?

I said of laughter, It is mad, and of pleasure, What does it accomplish?

I said of laughter, It is mad; and of mirth, What doeth it?

Merriment, I thought, is madness; pleasure, of no use at all.

Laughter, I considered an error. And to rejoicing, I said: "Why are you being deceived, to no purpose?"

Laughter I counted error: and to mirth I said: Why art thou vainly deceived?

Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness.

A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
