Chapter 18

1Concerning Deacons, that they should be doers of good works. Said Endreyas : Deacons shall be doers of good works by night and by day, with everyone in every place ; and they shall not exalt themselves over the poor and needy, nor respect the person of the rich ; and they shall look out for those who have nothing, and give to them of that which is left ; and shall bid those who have somewhat to give alms to them, that they may do what our Lord said : I was hungry (and) ye fed me. For he who ministers well the ministry without fault shall inherit a place of rest.
