Love is Patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast. It is not pride, it is not rude, it is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrong, love does not collies in evil, but rejoices with true, it always protects, always trusts, always hopes and always preserves.
