Man Is Not To Be Comprehended As

Masonry Is Identical With The Ancient Mysteries

He Who Endeavors To Serve, To Benefit, And Improve The World, Is Like A Swimmer, Who Struggles Against A Rapid Current, In A River Lashed Into Angry Waves By The Winds. Often They Roar Over His Head, Often They Beat Him Back And Baffle Him. Most Men Yield To The Stress Of The Current... Only Here And There The Stout, Strong Heart And Vigorous Arms Struggle On Toward Ultimate Success.

Justice Is Peculiarly Indispensable To Nations.

A Dim Consciousness Of Infinite Mystery And Grandeur Lies Beneath All The Commonplace Of Life . There Is An Awfulness And A Majesty Around Us, In All Our Little Worldliness .

Be Prudent, Diligent, Temperate And Discreet. Remember That Every Human Being Has A Claim Upon Your Kind Offices.
