Musar sur Le Cantique des Cantiques 5:3
פָּשַׁ֙טְתִּי֙ אֶת־כֻּתָּנְתִּ֔י אֵיכָ֖כָה אֶלְבָּשֶׁ֑נָּה רָחַ֥צְתִּי אֶת־רַגְלַ֖י אֵיכָ֥כָה אֲטַנְּפֵֽם׃
"J’ai enlevé ma tunique, comment pourrais-je la remettre? Je me suis lavé les pieds, comment pourrais-je les salir?"
Mesilat Yesharim
And they said: "A person should always be quick to do a Mitzvah. For due to Lot's older daughter preceding her sister by one night she merited preceding her by four generations" (Nazir 23b).
