the_o firmness_n of_o it_o jonathan_n soul_n be_v knit_v with_o the_o soul_n of_o david_n the_o faithfulness_n of_o it_o friendship_n he_o love_v he_o as_o his_o own_o soul_n which_o three_o be_v

2._o therefore_o jonathan_n friendship_n be_v ground_v upon_o david_n virtue_n remain_v firm_a and_o continue_v their_o heart_n be_v as_o it_o be_v tie_v and_o link_v together_o nothing_o but_o death_n can_v separate_v that_o mutual_a love_n nay_o after_o jonathan_n death_n david_n remember_v the_o league_n between_o they_o make_v in_o show_v mercy_n unto_o jonathan_n posterity_n now_o whereas_o two_o thing_n be_v require_v in_o friendship_n as_o aristotle_n show_v in_o his_o ethic_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v mutual_a of_o one_o towards_o the_o other_o which_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o love_n and_o friendship_n for_o one_o may_v love_v where_o he_o be_v not_o love_v again_o but_o friendship_n always_o rebound_v the_o like_a good_a will_v again_o the_o other_o thing_n be_v that_o this_o mutual_a love_n be_v make_v apparent_a and_o profess_a between_o they_o for_o there_o may_v be_v secret_a good_a will_n and_o inclination_n of_o affection_n between_o two_o but_o before_o it_o be_v profess_v and_o protest_v between_o they_o it_o be_v not_o proper_o friendship_n both_o these_o concur_v in_o this_o friendship_n for_o jonathan_n love_v david_n and_o be_v belove_v again_o and_o they_o profess_v this_o friendship_n by_o make_v a_o mutual_a league_n 3._o then_o the_o three_o thing_n follow_v observe_v in_o this_o love_n that_o be_v the_o force_n and_o efficacy_n of_o it_o jonathan_n love_v david_n as_o his_o own_o soul_n that_o be_v wish_v as_o well_o unto_o he_o as_o to_o himself_o he_o love_v he_o not_o that_o he_o expect_v good_a from_o he_o but_o to_o
