Virtue, Honour, And Mercy.
VIRTUE , HONOUR , AND MERCY .
VIRTUE should not only be the distinguishing characteristic of Free and Accepted Masons , but of every individual under heaven ; for the man of virtue is an honour to his country , a glory to humanity , a satisfaction to himself , and a benefactor
to the whole world ; he is rich without oppression or dishonesty , charitable without ostentation , courteous without deceit , and brave without vice . Virtue is the hig hest exercise and improvement of reason , the integrity , harmony , and just balance of
affection ; the health , strength , and beauty of the soul . The perfection of virtue is to give reason its full scope , to obey the authority of conscience with alacrity , to exercise the defensive passions with fortitude , the public with justice , the private with
temperance , and all of them with prudence , in a due proportion to each other . With a calm difusive benevolence to love and adore God with an unrivalled and disinterested affection ; to acquiesce in the wise dispensations of divine
providence with a joyful resignation ; every approach to this standard is towards perfection and happiness , but every deviation therefrom tends to vice and misery .
