The alacrity of it all

When all seems to be inaccuracy

And no promptness of response

Or perhaps even cheerful readiness.

Such a word, so lively

Either a physical quickness

Or emotions like eagerness and happiness.

Timely reactions

Have been described

In this way

Since the 15th century.

Accepted with alacrity.
