“Therefore eat thy bread with joy and drink thy wine with a merry heart.⁠ ⁠… Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity⁠ ⁠… for this is thy portion in life and in thy labours which thou takest under the sun.⁠ ⁠… Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might, for there is not work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.”
