人未有燃燈而藏之於斗下者、必置之檠上、用燭全室。

人未有燃燈而置諸庫中斗下者、必安之於燈臺之上、使入室者咸得見光明也。

人未有燃燈而掩之以蓋、或置之榻下者、必安之於燈臺之上、使入室者得睹其光也。

至於奸非浮穢貪婪之事、非聖徒所可道也。一切穢褻浪謔輕薄之詞、皆宜痛絕；惟宜謳歌主德、稱謝洪恩。幸毋自誤、應知凡奸非淫穢貪婪、莫非崇拜偶像之變相。犯此者必不得承嗣基督及天主之國也。勿為浮言所惑、蓋天主義怒之臨於悖逆諸子、正為此耳。萬望勿與若輩同流合污也。蓋爾等本屬昏昏、今則因主而為昭昭矣。故行事當光明正大、庶不愧為光明之子。夫光明之果、曰善、曰公、曰誠；亦在隨時體察何以求悅主心而已。凡黑暗之事、無所裨益、爾等非惟不可染指、且應嚴辭責之。蓋若輩所行曖昧之事、即言之亦可羞也。然凡事一經光明照察、即昭然若揭、斯光明矣，故曰：睡者其興、死者其起！惟彼基督、光明照爾。是以爾當小心翼翼、勿效無智、思齊有智。

俾成完人、而為天主之孝子、處邪污之世、而能保守清白、明如日月、照耀乾坤；使惟生之道、因爾益彰。如是則予平生之所為僕僕風塵、不遑寧息者、庶幾不為徒勞、且得揚眉吐氣於基督之日矣。

且聖神所授予各人之啟牖、莫非為眾人之益耳。
