The Journey with Jesus: Poems and Prayers

Selected by Dan Clendenin

Excerpt from Early Welsh Precepts

From Daniel Berrigan, No Gods But One (2009), p. 91

The THREE who are first in point of precedence according to politeness: the most infirm, the poorest, and he who does not know the language.

           THREE THINGS which, according to politeness, should be prepared for guests: a kind and affectionate reception, a ready and handsome provision, and a friendly conversation.
           THREE THINGS which, according to politeness, should not be asked of a guest: where he came from, his worldly condition, and the place of his destination.
           THREE THINGS which are indecorous over meat: gossiping, coquetting, and praising or blaming the meat, since it should be received as God sent it.
