Christ heard the twelve disputing about the highest seat; 

He took a bowl of water and knelt to wash their feet. 

He said to Simon Peter:here-after you will see 

Unless I do this cleansing, you can not share with me. 

I set you an example of what you ought to do, 

Since I, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet for you. 

By this the world shall know you as followers of mine: 

Your love for one another shall be the mark and sign. 

I give the new commandment to those I. choose and send, 

That you should love each other, as I have to the end. 

So faith and hope and loving remain when all is past; 

But of the three great virtues, the greatest is the last.
