die liebe ist \ Langmüthig und freundlich, die liebe Eifert nicht, die \ Liebe Trachtet nicht nach, muthwillen, sie Blehet sich nicht, \ sie stellet sich nicht ungebertig, sie suchet das ihre nicht, sie \ läßt sich nicht Erbittern, sie Trachtet nicht nach schaden, sie \ freuet sich nicht der ungerechtigkeit, sie freut sich aber der wahrheit.

Translation:

Love is patient and friendly, love does not strive, love does not yearn for mischief, it does not bloat, it does not appear improper, it does not look for its own, it does not let itself be made bitter, it does not yearn for adversity, it does not rejoice in injustice, but it rejoices in the truth.
