seven of them concern physical needs and are called the corporal (from the Latin word for body) works of mercy:

* To feed the hungry;

* to give drink to the thirsty;

* to clothe the naked;

* to shelter the homeless;

* to visit the sick;

* to visit those in prison;

* to bury the dead.

The other seven respond to spiritual and emotional needs:

* To instruct the ignorant;

* to counsel the doubtful;

* to admonish the sinner;

* to comfort the sorrowful;

* to forgive injuries;

* to bear wrongs patiently;

* to pray for the living and the dead.
