“For a bowl of water give a goodly meal; For a kindly greeting bow thou down with zeal; For a simple penny pay thou back with gold; If thy life be rescued, life do not withhold.

And purification being highly infectious, purification of oneself necessarily leads to the purification of one’s surroundings.”
