For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

And those members of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our less respectable parts have greater respect.

But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet I show unto you a more excellent way.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profits me nothing.
