All are especially cautioned against any harshness of
tone or manner when administering counsel or reproof, either
privately or in meetings. Friends should speak truth with love,
remembering that if they would do God's work, they must
abide in God's love. Even a seeming harshness may check the
beginnings of true repentance, and a lack of sympathy may
cause harm where only good was intended.

It is recommended that Friends take the opportunity,
on occasions when special statements or oaths are required, to
advance the cause of truth by simple affirmation, thus
