How is the tension between the characters reconciled in the story “marriage is a private affair”?

Laugh and be merry, remember, better the world with a song,    better the world with a blow in the teeth of a wrong.    laugh, for the time is brief, a thread the length of a span.    laugh and be proud to belong to the old proud pageant of man. (laugh and be merry/john masefield/public domain) which of these is the main idea of the poem?

When a mother loses her child, she's — highly agitated from strong emotion. a scene is if there's lots of action with little order.

May someone me answer these questions
