Solitude AnalysisBy Harry

Ella Wheeler Wilcox Ella Wheeler Wilcox (November 5, 1850 – October 30, 1919) was an American author and poet. Her most famous and enduring poem was “Solitude” and the first two line are widespread.

Silence is Grey by Juan Moranta

Laugh, and the world laughs with you;

Weep, and you weep alone;

For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth,But has trouble enough for its own.

Sing, and the hills will answer;

Sigh, it is lost on the air;

The echoes bound a joyful sound,But shrink from voicing care.

第二段在学校

Feast, and your halls are crowed;Fast, and the world goes by.

Succeed and give, and it helps you live,But no man can help you die.

There is room in the halls of pleasureFor large and lordly train,

But one by one we must file onThrough the narrow aisles of pain.
