It is not addressed to anybody in particular. He just laughs at the absurdity of it all... the impossibility of it all.

So a great opportunity comes whenever we face death.
We are a race of women that of old knew no fear and feared no death, and lived great lives and hoped great hopes; and if today some of us have fallen on evil and degenerate times, there moves in us yet the throb of the old blood.
Death is sad, yes, but there are some great laughs you can find there.
If I get big laughs, I'm a comedian. If I get little laughs, I'm a humorist. If I get no laughs, I'm a singer.
Life, like a child, laughs, shaking its rattle of death as it runs.
