2It is betterH2896 to goH3212 to the houseH1004 of mourningH60, than to goH3212 to the houseH1004 of feastingH4960: forH834 that is the endH5490 of all menH120; and the livingH2416 will layH5414 it to his heartH3820.

3SorrowH3708 is betterH2896 than laughterH7814: for by the sadnessH7455 of the countenanceH6440 the heartH3820 is made betterH3190.1

4The heartH3820 of the wiseH2450 is in the houseH1004 of mourningH60; but the heartH3820 of foolsH3684 is in the houseH1004 of mirthH8057.
