“Laugh and Be Merry” by John Masefield explains the main idea that C. Life is short; laugh and be merry.

The poem insists that the song of merry and laughter makes the world a better place. Such happiness helps in eradicating the sadness and negativity of the world. Further, it insists that the world becomes a better place when justice is served to those who did wrong, <em>“Better the world with a blow in the teeth of a wrong.”</em>
Linking it with the first line that happiness and laughter help in seeking justice.

The life is short like <em>“a thread the length of a span”</em>, hence, asking to laugh in the short span of life and make it meaningful. In the end, the poem insists to not to laugh just for oneself but for the humanity and history.

Which portion of this passage indicates that the narrator observed Roderick Usher trying to appear cheerful and friendly, in con
jeka57 [31]

"Usher rose from a sofa on which he had been lying at full length, and greeted me with a vivacious warmth which had much in it"

In this line, Usher's behavior of rising from the sofa to greet the narrator is a sign of friendly hospitality even though it seems as he rarely gets up from the sofa. Also, the narrator describes his greeting as vivacious. Vivacious means full of life and energy. This is in complete contrast to what we learn about Roderick Usher.While Usher is glad his friend has come, he is not full of life or energy.
