If your hand trembles when you offer a gift, your words therewith find no acceptance. If your speech of devotion be idle prate, it is like assafoetida mixed with milk, vapid and worthless. If your feet move not to holy places and you say “Why should I spend money on them?” Tuka says, you will accomplish nothing.
