Love may ancide wrong, love may require right, love may stand earth, and seek defence, before Judge. Love is patient, and gentle, it envieth not, it doth not boa• it self, it is not puffed up, it disdaineth not, it seeketh not, her own things, it is not eked to anger, it thinketh not evil, it rei•ceth not in iniquity. but it rejoiceth in the truth. It •uffereth all things, it believeth all […] it […] all things, it mdureth all things. Such is the nature of love, such it is, where• it is, inben it seeketh right, wh• it defendeth it self against challenge of doing wrong.
