“Joy and grief are never far apart. In the same street the shutters of one house are closed, while the curtains of the next are brushed by shadow of the dance.

Gladness and sighs brighten and dim the mirror he beholds.” JoyNextHouseChurchPartyGriefComedyDoorsSadnessStreetsWindReturnShadowMirrorsFuneralContrastSighCurtainsGladnessShuttersSadness Of LifeJoy And GriefWedding Party Book:Pleasures of Literature Source: Pleasures of Literature
