Dominus Iesus, postquam coenavit cum discipulis suis, lavit pedes eorum, et ait illis: Scitis quod fecerim vobis ego Dominus et Magister? Exemplum dedi vobis, ut et vos ita faciatis.

The Lord Jesus, after He had supped with His disciples, washed their feet, and said to them: Know you what I, your Lord and Master, have done to you? I gave you an example, that you also may do likewise
