definition

So, I didn't bring this one to class, because I am not sure of the rules on reading the Bible in state-funded institutions. But, anything goes in cyberspace, and this definition of love from 1 Corinthians 13 is, in my opinion, a beautiful piece of prose.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps not record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
(v. 4-8a)
