2 It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, since death is the end of every man, and the living should take this to heart.

3 Sorrow is better than laughter, for a sad countenance is good for the heart.

4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of pleasure.
