Friend - With friends like these, who needs enemies?

[dreams]

Psalm 41:9
Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

Matthew 26:49-50
And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him. [50] And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.

"Give me th' avowed, th' erect, the manly foe,
Bold I can meet- perhaps may turn his blow;
But of all plagues, good Heav'n, thy wrath can send,
Save, save, oh! save me from the Candid Friend."

George Canning, The New Morality, l. 207-10 (1798)
