    Laugh not too much; the witty man laughs least:
    For wit is news only to ignorance.
    Lesse at thine own things laugh; lest in the jest
    Thy person share, and the conceit advance.

I have known sorrow--therefore I
May laugh with you, O friend, more merrily
Than those who never read more

I have known sorrow--therefore I
May laugh with you, O friend, more merrily
Than those who never sorrowed upon earth
And know not laughter's worth.
I have known laughter--therefore I
May sorrow with you far more tenderly
Than those who never guess how sad a thing
Seems merriment to one heart's suffering.
