The slightest emotion of disinterested kindness that passes
through the mind improves and refreshes that mind, producing
generous thought and noble feeling, as the sun and rain foster
your favourite flowers. Cherish kind wishes, my children; for a
time may come when you may be enabled to put them in practice.
