Charity, Want Of, not Confined to Theological Circles
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.…


One doctor says bolus, and another says globule. Globule calls Bolus a butcher, and Bolus calls Globule a quack, and the hydropathist says, "Beware of pick-pockets." And Bolus will not speak to Globule, though Globule says, "Let us make it up, and begin again"; and Bolus says, "Never; as long as I live I will leech and blister and cup and bleed and do things with scientific vigour."

(J. Parker, D.D.)
