    A FRIEND A friend is a gift to a friend No, it is not from this earth made heavy By blood-ties and tradition and

    promises Which make things mighty and holy; No, it is not even where this life bears witness to respected and hallowed and long-standing customs and defends and is disciplined by them; Yes, it is rather a freely chosen and a freely desired urging of the heart, needing neither promise nor law In this a friend becomes indeed a gift to a friend
