And 'tis not sure so full a benefit Freely to give as freely to require. A bounteous act hath glory following it, They cause the glory that the act desire. - [Benevolence] The fairest action of our human life Is scorning to revenge an injury; For who forgives without a further strife, His adversary's heart to him doth tie: And 'tis a firmer conquest, truly said, To win the heart than overthrow the head. - Chorus from "Maxiam" [Forgiveness] Oh, how you wrong our friendship, valiant youth. With friends there is not such a word as debt: Where amity is ty'd with band of truth, All benefits are there in common set. - Marian [Friendship]
