It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud. It does not dishonor others,

but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

for a visiting stranger to do -
find out what the country's customs are,
and refrain from offending against them.
