Drinking is the soldier's pleasure... Sweet is pleasure after pain.
Drinking is the soldier's pleasure... Sweet is pleasure after pain.
For all the happiness mankind can gain Is not in pleasure, but in rest from pain.
Rich the treasure, Sweet the pleasure, Sweet is pleasure after pain.
Your love by ours we measure
Till we have lost our treasure,
But dying is a pleasure
When living is a pain.
The pleasure of possessing
Surpasses all expressing,
But 'tis too short a blessing,
And love too long a pain.
