Let none deceive another, or despise any being in any state.
Let none through anger or ill will wish harm upon another.
Even as a mother protects with her life, her child, her only child,
So with a boundless heart is one to cherish all living beings, radiating kindness over the entire world.
Do remember that we are to give this loving-kindness to ourselves first. Forgive yourself for any way in which you have disappointed yourself. This softens the heart and makes it receptive and able to give loving-kindness to others. Just think of that wonderful word, "radiating" and radiate kindness first to yourself and then to every other being in the universe.
