FREE-MASONS.

T^HE Author of the follov^ing Pages has the-" Honour of being well refpeded in moft of the

Lodges of Reputation in this Metropolis, and has

been a frequent Vifitor at the Queen's Arms, St.

Paul's Chvrch-yardj the Globe, in Fleet -ftreet j the

Jerufaleiti, at Clerkenwellj Half-moon, Cheapfide

;

Crown and Anchor in the Str&nd ; Salutation,

Grey-Friars ; and feveral others of lefs Note.

An Earned Defire of becoming a perfeft Matterof Masonry, and the Succefs he met with in his

firft Attempt, has rendered him capable of reveal-

ing thofe Myfteries to the World, which, till now,have been kept fecret as the Grave.

He acquired his Knowledge at firft from fomeloofe Papers belonging to a Merchant to whom hewas nearly related, who had been a Member of the

Queen's Arms, St. Paul's Church-yard. This Re-latior dying about ten Years ago, the Editor be-

came poflefled of his Effedis j and on looking over

his Papers, among others he found fome Memo-randums or Remarks on Mason r\, which excited

his Curiofity fo far, that he refolved on accomplirti-

ing his Scheme, without going through the Cere-

monies required by the Society.

The Remarks of his Friend abovementioned

furnifhed Hints fufficient to make a Trial on an in-

timate Acquaintance, a Free Mason, who readi-

ly gave him the Sign in the Manner he expeded.

After a mere narrow Infpedion on the Part of his

Friend, fuch as, where he was made, and when, &c.

&c. (to all which he anfwered with great Readinefs)

he received an Invitation to fpend an Evening at a

Tavern in the Strand, with feveral Acquaintances.• Hti^r . A 2 Elated

ftl

L,.«

*( iv )

Elated by this Succefs, he boldly advanced witii

his Company; all of whom belonged to the Lodge,

and were well known by the Tyler at the Door.

After the ufual Ceremony, in which he gave full

Satisfaction, he was admitted and took his Seat.

That Night he faw two Makings*, and came oflT

full of Spirits.

Soon after he went to another Lodge, where he

diftinguiflied himfelf greatly in anfwering the

Queftions propofed by the Maftef, which he ac-

quired from his Friend's Manufcripts of the En-TKRED Apprentice, and Fellow-Craft'sLc<5tures.

His Regard to the Society, and Refpedl to the

Public is the only inducement to this Publication,

which is intended not only to aflift thofe who have

been lately made, and ftill remain ignorant of the

true Foundation of the Art, but alfo to give all that

have an Inclination to become Mafons an Oppor-

tunity of confidering the Advantages and Difadvan- *

tages of the Engagements and Oaths by which they

are bound.—Such is the Intention of this Under-taking; and the Editor flatters himfelf the Bro-

therhood will not condemn his Officioufnefs in

this Refpect, as it will rather ftrengthen than hurt

the Interefl; of the Society ; the Fear of going

through the Ceremony, which hitherto has been

reprelented in fuch frightful Shapes, being the

greateft Obftacle to its future Welfare and Increaie.

The Editor's Ambition is to pleafej and the

Work is fubmitted to the only proper Judges, viz.

his Brethien the Free Masons j to whom he begs^

leave to declare, that no private or public Quarrel,

the View of Gain, nor any other Motive than the

Public Good could ever have induced him to write

upon this fubject ; and he declares to the World,that the following is the whole of true Masonry -

in all its Branches - .< -,,.;.,.. .. , .; , -.-, .

• Makings, the Term ufed in the circular Letters to the Mem-bers of the Lodge, acquainting them that New Members arc to,

ADVERTISEMENT.SINCE the former Edition of this Pamphlet was put to Prer,,

tht Author has received from his Puhlilher fcvcral anony-mous Letters, containing the lowcft Abufc and fcurrilous In-

veftives ; nay, fpmc have proceeded fo far as to threaten his

Perfon. He requerts the Favour of all enraged Brethren, whoIhall chufe to difplay their Talents for the future, that they will

be (a kind as to pay the Portage of their Letters, for there canbe no Reafon why he ihould put up with their ill Treatment,and pay the Piper into the Bargain. Surely there mull be fome-thing in this Book very extraordinary; a Something they can-

not digcil, thus to excite the Wrath and ire of thofe hot-brain-

ed Mul'on-bit Gentry! But however unwilling the Editor mayhe. to publilh a/l the Letters and Mcflages he has received on this

occafion, yet he cannot be To deficient in returning the Compli-ment, as to conceal one, which notwithftanding the Thrcatcn-ings contained in it, appears to be wrote with very little mean-ing, and he has (fans ceremonie) ventured to publilh it verbatim.

H E Origin * of the Society called Free-Mafons is

faid by (oine to have been a certain Number ofPer-

fons who formed a Refolution to rebuild thcTemplco( Solomon f. This appears from the Lcilure, or

• *' ** rather Hiflory, ofthe Order, aCtheMaking or Raif-

ing of a Member to the Degree ofMafter, which is fully de-

fctibed in the following Work. But I am inclined to think,

* The Rife of thii Science (favs an original Record) ww bofose the

Flood. In the 4th Chapter, of Geneus it is faid, There was ai Man namedLamtcb who had two Wives named jidab and Zitlah; by Jdab he begat

two Sons, Jabal. and Jubaf; by Zillab he begat one Son, called Tubal

Cain, and a Daughter named Na«mab> Thefe ^ hildren found oUt the

Beginning of all t^.e Crafts in the World } Jabal found out Geometry|

he divided Flocks of Sheep, and built the firft Houfu of Timber and bltone.

^'ubal found out the Art of Muflc, and was the Father of all thofc whoandled tlit Haqi. Tubal Cain was the InftruAor of all Artiticers in Iron

and Brafs } and his Daughter difcovercd the Craft of Weaving.

f By an old Record it appears, that King ScUinen confirmed all the Chprgeawhich King David had given to Mafons in Jtrufalem j and that the Temple wasfiniihed, A. M. 3000. In the Year 43, after Chrifl, Mafons firft came into

England, and built the Monaftcry of Glajlor.bury m Somo-JetJh'-re,

that

that the chief Dcficn of the Eftablifliment is to rc^lfy the

Heart, inform the Mind, and promote the Moral and ancial

Virtues of Humanity, Dvcc-ncy, and good Order, as much as

KoHible in the World : and fome of the Emhlcms of Frce-iafons confirm this Opinion, fuch as the Compafs, Rule,

Square, 6cc.

In all Countries where Mafonry is pradlifed, or eflabliihed

at this time, there is a Grand Mailer i but formerly there

was only one Grand Mailer, and he was an Kn^lijhman.

His Royal Highness Georgb Prince of Walesis the Perfon on whom the Dignity is now bcftowed,

who governs all the Lodges in Great Britain^ and has

the power of delivering the Conftitutions and Laws of the

Society to the Maftcrs who prefide over the fuhordinatc

Aflemblies : which Conftitutions muft always be figncd bythe Grand Secretary of the Order. The Grand MalK-rcan hold i Meeting or Lodge when he thinks prop'-T, whichis generally the Second Saturday in every Month in the

Summer, but oftener in the Winter.The other Lodges meet regularly twice a Month in the

Winter Half-Year, and once a Month in the Summer ; andthe Members of each Lodge pay Quarterly, from 3s. 6d. to

5s. into the Hands of the I'reaiurcr ; and this generally de-

frays the Expencc of their Meetings.There arc alfo Quarterly Communications or Meetings,

held, at which arc present the Matter and Wardens of every

Rccular ConiHtution in and near London^ where the fcveral

Lodges fend, by the faid Wardens, different Sums of Moneyto be paid into the Hands of the Treafurer General^ and ap>

propriated to fuch charitable Ufcs as the Grand Mader, andthe Maflers of the different Lodges under him, think proper \

but thefe Charities arc chiefly confined to Mafons only, anchas harve good Recommendations as to their Behaviour and Cha-ra£ler, will be aflifted with Five, Ten, or Twenty Pounds j

und lefs Sums are diilributed to the indigent Brethren, in Pro>

portion to their Wants, and the Number of Years they havebeen Members. At thefe Quarterly Communications, large

Sums are likewife fent fromLodges in the moft remote Parts

of the World, viz. in the Eajl and Jf^eji Indies^ and Accountstraiifmittcd of the growth of Mafonry there. The State of

the Funds of the Society arc likewife communicated to the

Company, and the Deliberations of the Meeting taken downby the Secretary, who lays them before the Grand Mafter at

the yearly Meeting.

rhe Number of Members which compofe a Lodge is in-

determinate ; but it is no Lodge except there are prefent

one Miiftcr, three Fellow-Crafts, and two Apprentices.

When ft liodge Is met, there ar*- two principal OfHccrs

under the Mafter, called Senior anJ Junior Warilcn«, wholeBufmer^ it is to fee the Laws o^ the Society ftridtly adhered

to, and the Wprd of Command given by the CJrand Maftcr

rceuiarly followed. •• - -

It muft be remarked, thit' the Authority of a Maftcr,

though Chief of the Lodge, reaches no farther than he is

himfelfan Obferver of the Laws ; ihould he infringe them,the Brethren njver fail to cenftirc him; and it this has noKfFc£t, they ha^c a Power of depofing him, on appealing to

the Crrand Mader, and giving their Reafons for it ; but they

(bldom pi'oceed to this Extremity.

As no Doubt the Reader chufcs to be made acquainted with

every Circumftancc of the Ceremony of making a Malbii, I

ihall begin with the following Directions, and proceed regu-

larly in the Defcription of what further concerns Mafonry.

A Man defirous of becoming a Free Mafon, (hould endea-

vour to get acquainted with a Member of foine good Lodge,who will propofe him as a Candidate for AdmiiTion the next

Lodge-Night. The Brother who propofcs a New Member,is likewife obliged to inform the Brethren of the Qualifi-

cations of the Candidate*. Upon this it ls'deh;ited whetheror not he (hall be admitted; and it befn<^ arried in the

Affirmative, the next Step is to go with tlic propoler the

enfuing Lodge-Night.The Evening being come when a Lodge is to be held, which

generally begins about Seven in the Winter, and Nine in the

bummer, as previous Notices are fent to the Members for this

Purpofe ; the Mafons are punftual to Time, and it frequently

happens, that, in half an Hour, the whole Lodtjc, to the

Number of Fifty or Sixty, are aflembled.

The Mafter, the two Afliftants, Secretary, and Treai

furer, begin with putting over their Necks a blue Ribbon of a

triasgular Shape , to the Maftcr's Ribbon hangs a Rule and

Compafs, which is in fome Lodges made of Goldj though in

others only gilt : the Affiftants, Senior Wardens, and the

other Officers, carry the Compafs alono;

The Candles are placed upon the liable in the Form of a

Triangle ; and in the beft Lodges the Candlefticks are f.nely

carved with emblematical Figures. Every Brother has an

Apron made of white Skin, and the Strings are alfo of Skin

;

though fome of them chufe to ornament them with Ribbons

* For the Good of this, and all oth«r Societies, it were to be wlfhrj a

more Ari^ Regard was paid, on the Part of th» Propofers, to the Charac-

ter aod Morali of every Caodidatc.

While this Song is finging, they all ftand round the Table,

and when they come to the laft Verfe they join Hands crdfs-

ways in the following Manner: The Right Hand Mantakes hold of the Left Han,^- of his Neighbour with his RightHand ; and the Left Hand Man takes hold of the RightHand of his next Brother with his Left Hand, fo as to forma Chain by fo many Links, and all join in the Chorus,jumping violently with their Feet on the Floor, and ftiaking

their Hands up and down, linked together as above, keeping

cxa£l time with both.

Every one now talksofwhat hepleafes^ and ;is it is generally

half an Hour before they proceed to Bufmefs, thofe who per-

haps have ordered a Supper retire into another Room ', but be-

fore

( al)

fore they are permitted, the Matter proceeds to call the Men offrom worky as it is termedj which is done in this Manner :

The Matter whifpers to the Senior Deacon, who fits on his

Right Hand, and fays, " It is high time to call the men fromWork to refrefti themfelves :" The Senior Deacon whifpers

it to the Senior Warden ; and it is communicated from himto the Junior Deacon, who carries it to the Junior Warden

;

he proclaims it openly to the Lodge, and fets his Column up-right*, and the Senior Warden lays his down, which figni-

fies that the Junior Warden is intrufted with the C e of the

Lodge, while the Brethren refrcfli themfelves.

In this place it will be neceflary to acquaint the Reader

how he may difcover an Entered Apprentice by drinking

with him in company; Take the Glafs with your RightHand, and draw it acrofs your Throat, either before or after

you drink; and if an Apprentice is prefent, he will imme-diately take Notice of it, by afking you fome Queftion in

Mafonry, which you will readily anfwer from this Book.If he afks you the meaning of your doing that, you maywhifper to him, that it is the Penalty of the Obligation of

an Entered Apprentice. From this Anfwer he will proceed

farther in his inquiry.

The Brethren having now regaled themfelves, they take

their Seats, and the Matter proceeds to fet them on again,

which is performed in the fame manner as the caliijig ofF j

with this Difference, the Warden proclaims, " It is our" Worfliipful Matter's Pleafure that this Lodge is called

" from Refreftiment to Work.*' The Junior Warden lays

down his Column, and the Senior fets his up. But as it

often happens that the Time will not permit for the Eellow-

Craft's Le£lure, they clofe the Lodge, which is done after

the fame Manner as that of opening. The Senior Wardendeclares it in the following Words :

" It is our Matter's" Will and Pleafure, that this Lodge ftand clofed till the" Firft ci 'i'hird Wednefday in the next Month," according

to the Night the Lodge is held. Then the Matter, Wardens,Deacons, Secretary, &c. take off thciEnfigns and Orna-ments from their necks, and every one is at Liberty to de-

part or ttay longer j every thing of Mafonry is excluded ;

they talk of what they pleafe, and fing various Songs ioi their

Chorus. His filent Breaft ai?d faithful Heart.

Preferve the Secrets of the Art.

From fcorching Heat p.nd piercing Cold,

From Beafts whofc roar the Forcft rends;

From the Aflaults of Warriors bold,

Chorus. Be to this Art due Honour paid,

From which Mankind receives fuch Aid.

Enfigns of State that feed our Pride,

Diftin£lions troublefome and vain,

By Mafon's true are laid afide.

Art's free-born Sons fuch Toys difdain.

From Jabfll down to Aberdour* :

Chorus. Let noble Mafons Healths go round,

Their praifc iii lofty Lodge refound. v;.'i*

In Company the Fellow-Craft takes the Pot or Glafs, and

draws it acro(s his left Breaft, and touches it ; the Penalty

being this, that he would fooner have his Heart torn from his

Left Breail, and given to the Fowls of the Air, than difcover

the Secrets of Mafonry. Sometimes this is done with the

Right Hand only, as it is lefs taken Notice of by Strangers.

Having given the Entered Apprentice and Fellow-Craft's

Part, I now proceed to the third and laft Degree of Mafonry,which is termed the Majier*s Part^ it being performed in the

the World, viz. our Grand Mafter Hiram,, who was killed

juft at the finifliing of the Temple i and the Manner of his

Death is thus related

:

" There were originally fifteen Fellow-Crafts, who per-

ceiving the Temple almoft finilhed, and not having received

the Mafter's Word, they grew impatient, and Agreed to extort

it from their Mafter Hira?n the firft Opportunity they could

find of meeting him alone, that they might pafs for Maftc;-.s

mother Countries, and receive the Wages or Profits of M^f-t^rs ; but before they could accomplilh their Scheme, twelveof ihem recanted; tne other three wereobftinate, and deter-

mined to have it by Force, if no other Way could be found ;

their Names were, fubela,, Jubeloy and juhelum.'* It being always the Cuftom of Hlnm,) at Twelve at

Noon, as foon as the Men were called oft" to refreih them-

felves, to go into the San^tm Sanifonoa^ or Holy of Holies,

to pay his Devotion to the true and living God, the three

Aflainns above-mentioned placed themfelves at the Kail,

Weft, and South Doors of the Temple. At the North there

was no Entrance, becaufe the Rays of the Sun never dart

from that Point." Hiramy having finifhed his Prayer to the I/Ord, came

to the Eaft Door, which he found guarded by fuhcla^ whodemanded the Mafter's Grip in a rclblute Manner ; he re-

ceived for anfwer from Hiram^ that it was not cuftomary

to alk it in fuch a Strain ; that he himfclf did not receive it

foi adding, that he mull wait, and 7'imc and Patience

would brii ^ it about. He told him farther, that it wa« not

in his Power alone to reveal it, except in the Prefcncc of

Solomon King of Ifrael^ and Hiram King of T^re. Jubtla

being diflatisfied with this Anfwcr, (Iruck him acrofs the

Throat with a twenty-four Inch (lauee* Hiram upon this

Ufage flew to the South Door of the Temple, where he was

met by JubtUy who aflccd him the Matter's Grip and Wordin like Manner as Jubela had done before; and on receiving

the fame Aniwcr from his Maftcr, he gave him a violent Blowwith a Square upon his Left Breaft, which made him reel.

Upon recovering his Strength, he ran to the Weft Door, the

only Way left him of cfcaping; and on beinj; intcrroaotcd

by jubelum to the fp.me Purport, who guarded that Paflagc,

(to whom he replied as at Brft) he received a terrible Fra£iurc

cafioned his Death. After this they carried his Bodv out at

• When you come to tMi Part of the Ceremoiiy of making a Mafter, It

occafio.-ir fome Surprire ; the Junior Warden ftrikei you with a twenty-four

Inch Gauge acrufi your Throat ; the Senior Warden folluwi the Blow, by

Itriking you with a Square on the Left Breaft | and almoft at the fame lallant

the Mailer knoclci you down with the Gavel. Thli is the Ciiftnm in molt

Lodges ; and it rcqulrci no fmull Shaie of Courage, for the Blows are frcr

quently fo fevcrc that the poor Candidate falli 'backwards on the Floor

;

and the greater h's Terror at this Ufage, the more the Brethren are |ili-.ilrd.

This Cuftom favours too much of Barbarity ; and many InOances can be

produced of Perfons in this Situation, who havr; requeued un their Knees to

be fet at Liberty, and others who have made their Efcape as fall as pofliblc

nut of tlie Lodge. The Frtncb and Natives of Swijftrland havt a morefti'iking and folemn Way of reprefenting the Death of Miram> When a

Brother cometi into the Lodge, in order to be railed to the Degree of Mafter,

one of the Members lies flat on his Back, with hii Face disfigured, and be>

Irncarcd with Blood, on the Spot where ttie Drawing on the Floor is made.

li'is natural Surpiifc and Cunfufion immediately appears, and one of tin; Dre-

tlircn generally addiclles him to the Purpott following: " Brother, be not'* fiightened ; this is the unfortunate Remains of a Worthy Mafter, that*• would not deliver the Crip atid Word to three Fcllow-Ciafts, who had' no Right to it ; and from this Example we learn our Duty, viz. to die

«' before we deliver the Mailer's Part of Mafonry rr. thofe who have na*• Claim thereto." On kneeling to receive the Obligation, the fuppofed

dead Brotiier lies behind you, and during the T':!'-;' c;' adminillcring the

Oath, aad reading the Hiftory of his Uealli, lie „c(<i ip, and you arc laid

down in his PUve. This ii the moll material Diifere. ;e between the Frenchand Englifit Method of making a Mailer Maloji : and that it is more agreeable

to Humanity than giving a Man a violent Blow on the Forehead with a Gave!,

muft be obvictus to every Reader.

Maf. After you was thus knocked down, what was faid

to you then ?

jlnf. I was told I reprefcntcd one of the grc.itcft men in

the World lying dead, viz. our CJrand Mafter Hiram.

Maf. Thank you. Brother.—Pray coon.

Anf. As I lay on my Back, the Nlaftcr informed me hovr

Hiram was found ; and by what means the three Ruffians

were difcovcred, as follows :

" Our Mafter Hiram not coming to view the Workmcaas ufual, King Solomon caufed ftri(£l Search to be made ; but

this proving inefFcdtual, he was fuppofed to be dead. TheTwelve Fellow-Crafts who recantcl, hearing the Report,

their Confciencesprickinff them, went to Solomon with white

Aprons and (iloves, Emblems of their Innocence, and in-

formed him of every Thing relative to the Affair, as far as

they knew, and ottered their Affiftance in order to difcover

tbe three other Fellow-Crafts who had abfconded. Theyfcparated, and divided thcmfelves into four Parties; three

Kaft, Weft, North, and South, in Queft of the Murderers.

As one of the Twelve was travelling on the Sca-fide, near

Joppa^ being fatigued, he fat down to refrefti himfelf : but

was foon alarmed bv the following hideous Exclamations fromthe Cliffy of a Rock: " Oh ! that my Throat had been cut" acrofs, my Tongue torn out by the Root, and buried in

** the Sands of the Sea at Low-water Mark, a Cable'sLength*' from the Shore, where the Tide ebbs and flows twice in

** Twentyrfour Hours, e'er I had confented to the Death of** our Grand Mafter Hiram!"—" Oh ! (fays anoi'ier) thatu my Heart had been torn from under my naked Left BrcMll,

" and given a Prey tothc Vultures of the Air, rather than I

*' had been concerned in the Death of fo good a Mafter !"

" But (fays a third) I ftruck him harder than you both ;

" 'twas I that killed him. Oh ! that my Body had been fever-** ed jn two, and fcattered to the South and North ; my Bow-" els burnt to Afties in the South, and fcattered between thq*' four Winds of the Earth, ere I had been the caufe of the" Death of our good Mafter Hiram!" The Fellow-Craft

hearing this, went in Queft of his two Aflbciates, and they

entered the Cliffof the Rock, took and bound them faft, and

brought tliem to King Solomon.^ before whom they voluntarily

confcfied their Guilt, and begged to die. The Sentence paft'ed

on them was the fame as they expreffed in their Lamentation

jn the Cliff ;7«/'t7/7's Throat was cut acrofs

** When the Execution was over, King Solomon fent for

the Twelve Crafts, and defired them to take the Body of

Hiram up, in order that it might be interred in a folemnManner in the Saniium SanSiorum ; he alfo toh! them, that

if they could not find a Key-Word about him, it was loft;

for there were only three in the World to whom it was known;and unlefsthey were prefent it could not be delivered. Hirambeing dead, \\. confequently was loft. However, as Solomon

ordered, they went and cleared the Rubbifh, and found their

Mafter in a mangled Condition, having lain fifteen Days ;

upon wluch they lifted up their Hands above their Heads in

Aftoniftimcnt, and faid, Lord, fny God I This being the

firft Word and Sign, King Solomon ado)>ted it as the grand

Sign of a Mafter Mafon, and it isufedat this Day in all the

Lodges of Matters.

fays, Brethren^ are you all charged? The-Senior and Junior

raifing their Hands Brcaft high, they clap nine Times againft

Drinking with three Times three, and at tue End they give a

Huzza.Having at length gone through my Plan, I have nothing

further to add than this, that the following is the beft Methodfor a Stranger to gain Admittance, being what I have often

tried in many Places, in order to be fully fatisfied.

As foon as you come to the Door of the Lodge, you will

find the Tyler on the Outfule, with n drawn Sword in his

Hand, and a white Apron on. Afk him if there is a full

Lodge ? And tell him you fliould be glad of Admittance as a

vifiting Member; taking care to provide yourfclf with a

white Leather Apron, which you may ftiew him as if by Ac-cident. He will, perhaps, afk you what Degree you are of,

and defire a Sign, which you may fliew him with Readinefs,

and jikewife inform him what Lodge you belong to.

It being contrary to the Rules of the Society that the

Tyler (hould admit a Stranger, he will go in, and acquaint

the Mafter, that fuch a Perfon (mentioning your Name, andthe Lodge you told him you belonged to) craves Admittance.

Upon which one of the Wardens will come out to cxamincyou. Draw your Right Hand acrofs your Throat edgeways,and he will fay, ""What's that?" 'Your Anfwer inuft 'be*' The due Guard of an Apprentice." Then he will take

you by the firft Joint of the Thumb of your Riiijht laand,

, and prefs it hard" with the Thmnb-Nail of the Right Hand,and aflc, " What's this ?"—rYou muft immediately anfwer,** The Grip of an Entered Apprentice."—Jf he is not fully

fatisfied with this, he will go further on in this Manner.^tef. Has it got a Name ?—You muft anfwor, " It has."

Then he will a(k you to give it him.

Then Ned arofe, r- ll'd off his Clothes,

Drev,^ out his Lme and Level,

He pi .'d his Plum beneath her Bum,And brought it to a Bevil

He took his Gauge, his Nine-Inch Gauge,And plac'd it with a floping,

He fix'd his Stones like Inigo Jones,

And left no Cievice open. ,

Dear Ned, fays Kate, you've doite a Feat,

A Feat of mighty Wonder,And as for me, you plainly fee,

Our Works are glorious,

Deeds meritorious,

Never cenforious.

But great and free.

When Folly's Sons arife,

Mafonry to defpife,,

Scorn all their Spite

Laugh at their Ignorance,

Pity their Want of Senfe,

Ne'er let them give Offence,

Firmer unite.

Mafons have long been free,

And may they ever be

Great as of Yore :

For many Ages paft,

To deck a finifh'd Form divine,

And fill the fov'reign Artift's Plan

Archetype of Beautv, Man.ANTISTROPHE.SEMICHORUS and CHORUS.

Ye Spirits pure, that r.ous'd the tuneful Throng,And rous'd to Rapture each triumphant Tongue

Each harmonious Lip infpire

Again bid every vocal ThroatDiflblve in tender votive Strain !

AIR. Vernon.

Now while yonder white rob'd TrainBefore the myftic Shrine,

In lowly Adoration join.

Now fweep the living Lyre, and fwell the mclt'ng Note.

Bid your magic Song impart.
