Merrily, merrily shall I live now, under the blossom that hangs on the bough
The line "Merrily, merrily shall I live now, under the blossom that hangs on the bough" is from William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest." This line is spoken by the character Miranda, the daughter of the exiled Duke Prospero. Miranda utters these words in Act V, Scene I, as she reflects on the newfound freedom and happiness she has found on the island.
