26. When you are disturbed, you will do well to remain silent
until the mind is composed; otherwise you will commit a thousand faults
without perceiving them.
27. In correcting
others, endeavor to select a time when neither you nor the person to be
corrected are disturbed; otherwise the correction will do more harm than
good.
28. Always to speak well of others, and to excuse the intention when you cannot excuse the action.
29. To assist others to the best of your ability, and particularly those that are opposed to you.
30.
Neither to say nor to do anything disagreeable to others, unless when
it is more pleasing to God that you should say or do it. And when you
sometimes fail in charity to your neighbor; to ask pardon, or at least
to speak to the person with kindness; and always to speak with meekness,
and in a low tone.
