Lift off the poor man's burden, My Country, grand and great ; The Orient has no treasures To buy a Christian State. Our souls brook not oppression, Our needs — if read aright — Call not for wide possession, But Freedom's sacred light.
Pagina 110 - To-night we meet within the mystic halls Of these our brothers, whose emblazoned shields Glow forth in golden splendor on our walls, Greeting with joy the sword our Order wields.

Pagina 38 - JEEP in step and do not falter ; Forward march to Freedom's altar; Onward, though our path be dreary, Onward, though our steps be weary. We shall win with steps united, Free the land by evil blighted.
