John 13:9
Douay-Rheims
Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head.
Augustine of Hippo
(Tr. lvi. 4) Or, the disciples when washed had only to have their feet washed; because while man lives in this world, he contracts himself with earth, by means of his human affections, which are as it were his feet.
