- The Xlcrry Heart.
’T.n t!l to Lava merry heart,
However short we stay;
Teere’s wiidom in a merry heart,
VVbate’er the world may eaj ;
And hnd out many a fliw
Bu‘ irive me the phltoopfc
That’s haj py with a etr
i! Hie hut brings us h<r
It brings cb, we are toid.
What’* hard to buy, though r;cu ones try,
With all their heap* ot gold ;
Then laugh away, let otb* ra say
Wbate’er they will of mirth ;
Who laughs the most may tiuly boast
He’s got the wealth of earth.
There’s beauty in a merry heart,
A moral beauty ioo,
It shows the heart’s an honest heart,
That's jiaid lath in n his due.
And lent his shire ot what’e to spare,
Despite of wisdom’s tears.
And makes the cheeks less sorrow speak,
The eye weep lower tears.
The sun may rhrowd itself in cloud,
The tempest’s wrath begin,
It finds a spark to cheer the dark,
Its sunlight is wi.bin ;
Then laugh away, let others gay
Whate’cr they will of mirth:
Who laughs the most may truly boast
lie’s got the we. I h 01 earth.
