ADVICE to the MELANCHOLY

• Come, let's be merry, let's be airy,
• “is a Folly to be sad;
• For since the World's grown mad,
• Why should we alone be wise,
• And like dull Fools gaze on other Men's Joys?

• Let not To-morrow bring your Sorrow,
• ‘While the Stream of Time flows on;
• But when the blissful Day is past,
• still endeavour that the next
• Be full as gay, and as little perplex'd.

• If you have Leisure, follow Pleasure,
• Let not an Hour of Bliss pass by;
• For as the fleeting Minutes fly,
• Time it will your Youth decay,
• Then strive to live, and be blest whilst you may.

• If you have Plenty, nought will torment you,
• But yet your selves, your selves may annoy;
• Hearty and free’s the poor Man's Joy;
• Gladly yielding the Minutes pass,

(Musical Miscellany, v. 4.1730)
