<strong>St</strong> Paul to the Corinthians; First Letter — 13: 1–7<br />
He spoke the language both of earth and of heaven,<br />
but if he had had no love it would have been so much old iron.<br />
He was a prophet who could explain all the wonders and secrets of God.<br />
He was wise with all knowledge.<br />
He had faith so complete he could have moved mountains,<br />
but if he had had no love it would all have been worthless.<br />
He gave everything he possessed, even his life,<br />
as a martyr for what he believed<br />
but if he had had been without love it would have gone for nothing.<br />
He was never in a hurry and was always kindness itself.<br />
He never envied anybody at all and never boasted about himself.<br />
He was never snobbish or rude, or selfish.<br />
He didn’t keep on talking about the wrong things other people do;<br />
remembering the good things was happiness enough for him.<br />
He was tough – he could face anything.<br />
And he never lost trust in God, or in men or women.<br />
He never lost hope.<br />

Man<br />
My God, I heard this day<br />
That none doth build a stately habitation<br />
But he that means to dwell therein.<br />
What house more stately hath there been,<br />
Or can be, than is Man, to whose creation<br />
All things are in decay?<br />
Excerpt — Man; George Herbert (1593–1633)<br />
English Metaphysical poet<br />
and Anglican priest<br />
