Beneficence negative Condolences as well as mournings are
bad things. Men & more especially women give actual increase to
their grief while under the notion of duty & even of merit they
make display of it. If all mournings were altogether out of
use, a vast map of suffering would be prevented from coming
into existence. Some savage or barbarous nations make merry
at funerals: they are wiser in this respect than polished ones.

Instead of offering condolence to your friend, if you can
not persuade him to take any amusement contrive that business
shall in some shape or other, make an irresistible demand
upon him for his attention.
