Love is patient,
So they say.
Love is kind,
If I may.
It envies not
of right or rain,
And boasts not
Of anything.
Love is not rude,
Seeks not its own,
And keeps its anger
from the throne.
Love frowns at evil
And smiles at good.
Love bears All,
Believes All.
Love hopes All,
Endures All.
Love

Never


Fails.
