1 " If you are tempted to revealA tale to you someone has toldAbout another, make it pass,Before you speak, three gates of gold;These narrow gates. First, " Is it true?" Then, " Is it needful?" In your mindGive truthful answer. And the nextIs last and narrowest, " Is it kind?" And if to reach your lips at lastIt passes through these gateways three,Then you may tell the tale, nor fearWhat the result of speech may be. "
