The Exhortation of 800 AD, was issued by Charlemagne in the year he became Emperor
Love God Almighty with all your heart and all your powers Love your neighbour as yourself Give alms to the poor as ye are able Entertain strangers Visit the sick Be merciful to prisoners Do ill to no man, nor consent unto such as do, for the receiver is as bad as the thief Forgive as ye hope to be forgiven Redeem the captive Help the oppressed Defend the cause of the widow and orphan Render righteous judgement Do not consent to any wrong Persevere not in wrath Shun excess in eating and drinking Be humble and kind Serve your liege lord faithfully Do not steal Do not perjure yourself, nor let others do so Envy, hatred and violence separate men from the Kingdom of God Defend the Church and promote her cause.
This is the way of Honour and Virtue.
I Pray that some day we both may have it, Samaelhain
