Or bestow costly gifts
21
But he overflows with the gold of sincere friendliness

An influence, and a power with people

This is the fourth element in friendliness
42
Friendliness is very contagious
43
The trouble is that many of us wait

To catch it from someone else instead of
45
Giving the other fella a chance
46
