The Character Of Happy Life (Summary)
This is one of the best known poems of sir Henry wot ten. In this poem he describes the life and character of a really happy person. In his open ion, the happy man in the real sense is he who is slave to none. He is free in his thinking and ideas. He keeps his emotions under his control. He has no lush of name or fame. He does not allow any one to flatter him. He keeps his life free from scandals. He prays God for heavenly rewards. His best companions are religious books and true friends. He is free from all slavish ties. He neither aspires to rise to higher status nor he is afraid of his down fall. In the end sir Henry Wot ten says that from Wordy point of view he has nothing but spiritually he was complete satisfaction. So, happiness is not hidden under the heaps of gold and silver. It is the state of mind which is gained by gallant virtues of life.
