SHALOM ALEHEM .
SHALOM , Alehem I Peace to all , Good friends ancl true about the lodge , Whatever fortune may befall , Be this the sentence of the Judge : In love ancl peace to pass away And sleep beneath the Acacia ' s spray .
Ancl when life's imagery shall fail , And closing eyes and ears no more Tell of the friends we loved so well , And in their hearts our memory wore , May the Great Master from His throne Say : " Peace be with you everyone . "
