You must not even breathe a word when those who are more distinguished than you are in discussion on spiritual matters (or, you must offer a seat to superiors and worship them with acts of reverence and love). Gifts should be given with faith; it should never be given without faith; it should be given in plenty, with modesty and with sympathy. Let there be also agreement in opinion or friendly feelings when gifts are offered.
