¶ The man that has friends must show himself to be a friend, and there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother.
¶ Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart, so does the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.
¶ Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.
Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his soul for his friends.
Ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you.
And that the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness, and he was called the Friend of God.
