Nostalgia ( feel pleasure/sadness when think of the past) - Often in thought go up and down/ the pleasant streets of the dear old town / and my youth comes back to me.

Resentment (feel anger for being forced to do something)- They sent me to eat in the kitchen / When company comes / But I laugh / and eat well /and grow strong

Resilience (be able to return to good condition) - Tomorrow I'll be at the table/ When company comes.

Hope (want something to happen) - Not everlastingly while others sleep.../We were not made eternally to weep
