2 It is better to go to the house of mourning than to the house of feasting, For that is the end of every mortal, and the living should take it to heart. 3 Sorrow is better than laughter; when the face is sad, the heart grows wise. 4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of merriment.
