What Is Our Life? ================= Adapted from "What Is Our Life" by Sir Walter Raleigh What is our life? A play of passion. Our mirth the music of division. Our mother's wombs the tyring houses be, Where we are drest for this Where we are drest for this short Comedy. Heaven the judicious sharp spectator is, That sits and marks still who doth act amiss, Our graves that hide us from the searching sun, Are like drawn curtains when Are like drawn curtains when the play is done. Thus march we playing to our latest rest, Only we die in earnest Thus march we playing to our latest rest, Only we die in earnest, that's no jest. That's no jest That's no jest Only we die in earnest Only we die in earnest That's that's no jest.
