Proper love and gratitude in human relations
Letter LXV argues love and gratitude are distinct affections, with love arising freely and gratitude as a debt from benefits received. It cites Mencius, a hermit tale, and an English tale of a quarrel to show restraint in expecting returns, advising to value mutual liberty and prudent generosity while acknowledging conflicts in friendships and nations.
