Today's wonderful word comes from an opera I was listening to earlier -


caritas


[ˈkarɪtɑːs]
NOUN
Christian love of humankind; charity.

Or as Collins Dictionary defines it.
1.
a. the giving of help, money, food, etc, to those in need
b. (as modifier)
a charity show
2.
a. an institution or organization set up to provide help, money, etc, to those in need
b. (as modifier)
charity funds
3. the help, money, etc, given to the people in need; alms
4. a kindly and lenient attitude towards people
5. love of one's fellow people


Here is another version of the opera -

Robert Saxton - Caritas: Act II (Complete)




Enjoy.
