1 Better 'is' a name than good perfume, And the day of death than the day of birth.
2 Better to go unto a house of mourning, Than to go unto a house of banqueting, For that is the end of all men, And the living layeth 'it' unto his heart.
3 Better 'is' sorrow than laughter, For by the sadness of the face the heart becometh better.
