Syn:
Happiness,
Felicity,
Blessedness,
Bliss.
Usage: Happiness is generic, and is applied to almost every
kind of enjoyment except that of the animal appetites;
felicity is a more formal word, and is used more
sparingly in the same general sense, but with elevated
associations; blessedness is applied to the most
refined enjoyment arising from the purest social,
benevolent, and religious affections; bliss denotes
still more exalted delight, and is applied more
appropriately to the joy anticipated in heaven.
[1913 Webster]
O happiness! our being's end and aim! --Pope.
[1913 Webster]
Others in virtue place felicity,
But virtue joined with riches and long life;
In corporal pleasures he, and careless ease.
--Milton.
[1913 Webster]
His overthrow heaped happiness upon him;
For then, and not till then, he felt himself,
And found the blessedness of being little.
--Shak.
