1 Though I speake with the tongues of men and of Angels, and haue not loue, I am as soundyng brasse, or as a tincklyng Cimball: 2 And though I coulde prophesie, and vnderstoode all secretes, and all knowledge: Yea, if I had all fayth, so that I coulde moue mountaynes out of their places, and haue not loue, I were nothyng. 3 And though I bestowe all my goodes to feede the poore, and though I geue my body that I burned, and haue not loue, it profiteth me nothyng. 4 Loue suffreth long, and is curteous: Loue enuieth not, loue doth not frowardely, swelleth not, 5 Dealeth not dishonestlie, seeketh not her owne, is not prouoked to anger, thynketh none euyll, 6 Reioyceth not in iniquitie: bur reioyceth in the trueth: 7 Suffreth all thynges, beleueth all thynges, hopeth all thynges, endureth all thynges. 1 Corinthians 13:1-7, Bishops' Bible of 1568.
