Sing, and the hills will answer, Sigh, and 'tis lost on the air; The echoes rebound to a JOYFUL sound And shrink from voicing care. Rejoice, and men will seek you, Grieve, and they turn and go; They want full measure of all your pleasure, But they do not want your woe. Be glad, and your friends are many, Be SAD, and you lose them all; There are none to decline your nectared wine, But alone you must drink life's gall. Feast, and your halls are crowded, Fast, and the world goes by; Forget and forgive--it helps you to live, But no man can help you die! There is room in the LIMITS of pleasure For a long and lordly train, But, one by one, we must all march on Through the narrow aisle of pain.

Answer:

Explanation:

The WAY of The World : - Ella Wheeler Wilcox Poem - English Poems

Laugh, and the world laughs with you,

Weep, and you weep alone,

For the brave old earth must borrow its mirth--

It has TROUBLE enough of its own.

Sing, and the hills will answer,

Sigh, and 'tis lost on the air;

The echoes rebound to a JOYFUL sound

And shrink from voicing care.

Rejoice, and men will seek you,

Grieve, and they turn and go;

They want full measure of all your pleasure,

But they do not want your woe.

Be glad, and your friends are many,

Be SAD, and you lose them all;

There are none to decline your nectared wine,

But alone you must drink life's gall.

Feast, and your halls are crowded,

Fast, and the world goes by;

Forget and forgive--it helps you to live,

But no man can help you die!

There is room in the LIMITS of pleasure

For a long and lordly train,

But, one by one, we must all march on

Through the narrow aisle of pain.
