several_a thing_n transient_o speak_v of_o it_o come_v to_o be_v ask_v whether_o benefit_n produce_v friendship_n rather_o than_o friendship_n itself_o or_o great_a desert_n without_o benefit_n i_o

out_o of_o their_o mind_n as_o grief_n do_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n of_o afflict_a person_n from_o whence_o every_o moment_n steal_v a_o part_n so_o that_o time_n weaken_v and_o diminish_v

for_o my_o part_n reply_v zenocrates_n though_o i_o be_o not_o ungrateful_a and_o will_v never_o be_v so_o yet_o i_o conceive_v that_o if_o i_o receive_v benefit_n from_o a_o person_n without_o merit_n the_o friendship_n i_o shall_v bear_v he_o will_v be_v more_o in_o my_o will_n than_o in_o my_o heart_n but_o if_o benefit_n without_o merit_n say_v amerintha_n can_v produce_v friendship_n do_v you_o think_v that_o friendship_n without_o merit_n can_v produce_v a_o very_a tender_a one_o and_o do_v you_o think_v that_o desert_n alone_o without_o friendship_n and_o benefit_n be_v able_a to_o beget_v a_o great_a affection_n in_o truth_n say_v andromira_n if_o friendship_n be_v not_o join_v with_o desert_n and_o benefit_n those_o latter_a will_v have_v no_o great_a effect_n but_o how_o can_v we_o do_v otherwise_o say_v meleontus_n than_o love_v those_o that_o serve_v we_o and_o do_v we_o good_a upon_o all_o occasion_n and_o how_o can_v we_o but_o love_v such_o too_o say_v

wherefore_o provide_v we_o publish_v their_o good_a deed_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o return_v the_o like_a in_o case_n of_o need_n i_o conceive_v we_o may_v dispense_v with_o love_v they_o and_o yet_o not_o be_v ingrateful_a for_o friendship_n and_o gratitude_n be_v two_o different_a thing_n and_o i_o think_v we_o ought_v to_o have_v the_o latter_a towards_o all_o from_o who_o we_o receive_v benefit_n and_o the_o former_a only_o for_o those_o that_o affect_v our_o heart_n either_o by_o their_o desert_n or_o their_o friendship_n or_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o own_o inclination_n but_o will_v you_o love_v people_n of_o no_o merit_n say_v amerintha_n because_o they_o love_v you_o and_o be_v it_o not_o just_a to_o love_v those_o that_o do_v you_o service_n for_o my_o part_n say_v

this_o case_n be_v that_o desert_n alone_o produce_v esteem_v only_o which_o be_v always_o a_o great_a disposition_n to_o friendship_n that_o benefit_n ought_v insensible_o to_o engage_v the_o receiver_n to_o their_o interest_n from_o who_o they_o receive_v they_o and_o at_o least_o beget_v a_o kind_n of_o gratitude_n in_o their_o mind_n the_o effect_n whereof_o resemble_v those_o of_o

it_o for_o to_o engage_v to_o love_v all_o people_n without_o merit_n of_o who_o we_o may_v be_v belove_v will_v be_v injurious_a to_o our_o true_a friend_n all_o which_o you_o say_v be_v extreme_o
