ODE ON THE DUKE OF LEINSTER .
[ At an influential meeting of North of Ireland Freemasons , lately held in the arch-Episcopal city of Armagh , for the purpose of launching a movement for the building of a Masonic Halt in the province , an ode was rendered by the musical brethren , which had been written by one of them , and set to music by
Bro . Marks , Mus , Bac . P . G . 0 . The following are the words of the ode . They convey sentiments relative to tho Grand Master which will strike a chord of sympathy iu every Masonic heart wherever the name of the Duke of Leiuster is known , and that is iu every Masonic Lodge iu tho universe . |
The grand old lights of Masonry Still guide us on our way—Though rugged be the path we tread , And gloomy be onr day ; So still we hail with welcome shout That good old charter cry , And drink to Leiuster's honoured name , Willi glass uplifted high .
Tor wo are all true Masons , Good Masons every one ; Gathered here for pleasure , AA'hen our work is done . Here ' s to our good Grand Master—long may he live . For many a year lie still has been
Our sure and trusty friend—For many a year we wish him spared , Our ancient Craft to tend ; With him we'll work in " peace " and "love , " In " harmony " be blended ; And sorrow deep shall fill our breasts
Whene'er his days are ended . For we arc , & c . As Masons , then , we proudly claim The Puke as " one of ours "Long may lie lead a happy life 'Mid Carton ' s lovely ( lowers ;
And when Acacia branch is reared , Where cold his ashes he , May he have joined that Lodge above Where brethren never die . For we are , & c .
Masonry inspires its members with the most exalted ideas of God , and leads to the exercise of the most pure and sublime piety .
