Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims’ hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers’ kiss.
Kind commoner, you are too critical of your hands. Your flirting is well-mannered. Commoner hands are worthy of the saints and saint's hands are holy enough to kiss God through prayer.
