Be Prudent, Diligent, Temperate And Discreet. Remember

What Is The Purpose For Which Masonry Exists? Its Ultimate Purpose Is The Perfection Of Humanity. Mankind It Self Is Still In A Period Of Youth. We Are Only Now Beginning To Acquire A Consciousness Of The Social Aim Of Civilization, Which Is Man's Perfection. Such Perfection Can Never End With Physical Perfection, Which Is Only The Means To The End Or Spiritual Perfection.

Justice Is Peculiarly Indispensable To Nations.

To Work With The Hands Or Brain, According To Our Requirements And Our Capacities, To Do That Which Lies Before Us To Do, Is More Honorable Than Rank And Title.

Virtue Is But Heroic Bravery, To Do The Thing Thought To Be True, In Spite Of All Enemies Of Flesh Or Spirit, In Despite Of All Temptations Or Menaces.

Toleration, Holding That Every Other Man Has The Same Right To His Opinion And Faith That We Have To Ours; And Liberality, Holding That As No Human Being Can With Certainty Say, In The Clash And Conflict Of Hostile Faiths And Creeds, What Is Truth, Or That He Is Surely In Possession Of It, So Everyone Should Feel That It Is Quite Possible That Another Equally Honest And Sincere With Himself, And Yet Holding The Contrary Opinion, May Himself Be In Possession Of The Truth.
