THIS address delivered to a large body

of Students at Northfield, Mass., has found

its way

into several foreign languages.

It is now published in English, corrected from the original stenographer's report, by

request, and is the only Authorized Edi

tion.

JAMES POTT & Co.

THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not Love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not Love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give

my body to be burned, and have not Love,

nothing.

profiteth me

Love suffereth long, and is kind;

Love envieth not;

Love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up

Doth not behave itself unseemly,

Seeketh not her own,

Is not easily provoked,

Thinketh no evil;

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things endureth all things.
