A Masonic Song.
A MASONIC SONG .
Ho , Brother , I am a Britisher , A chip of " heart of oak , " That wouldn't warp or swerve or stir , From what I thought or spoke . And you , a blunt and honest man , Straightforward , kind , and trne—I tell you , Brother Jonathan , That you ' re a Briton too .
I know your heart ' s an honest heart , I read your mind and will , A greyhound , ever on the start , To ran for hononr still . And shrewd to scheme a likely plan , And stout to see it done , I tell yoa , Brother Jonathan , That you and I are one .
" God save the Queen " delights you skill , And " British Grenadiers , " The good old strains your heartstrings thrill , And catch yon by the ears . And we , 0 hate us , if you can , For we are proud of you—We like you , Brother Jonathan , And " Yankee Doodle " too .
What more , I touch not holier fchiugs , A loftier strain to win , Nor glance afc prophets , priests , and kings , Of heavenly kith or kin . As friend with friend , and man with man , 0 let our hearts be thus , A David's love to Jonathan , Be Jonathan ' s to us .
