10havingG3140 a reputationG3140 for 3goodG2570 worksG2041; and ifG1487 she has broughtG5044 up childrenG5044, ifG1487 she has 4shownG3580 hospitalityG3580 to strangersG3580, ifG1487 she 5has washedG3538 the 6saints’G40 feetG4228, ifG1487 she has 7assistedG1884 those in distressG2346, and ifG1487 she has devotedG1872 herselfG1872 to everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041.
