y The forces of the universe combine In love and brotherhood . The planets in their orbits sweep But iiiter-linkincr courses keep . Our orb upon its destiu'd way Attended
goes—From its great heart the vital warmth Of being flows—The trailing- clouds their beauty glass In the blue ocean as they pass , And the sunshine and the rain Shape the leaf and tint the flower . Kindred influences yield
Herded ( lock and hoarded grain , Forest tree and grass of field , All receive to erive again . Rendering threefold amplest dower . There is no flaw in the mysterious chain That the assaults of ages has withstood , But perfect is the law of love and brotherhood .
HOAV , then , shall man alone—The prince and crown of all—This loving law disown , Impatient of the thrall , And in tiie pride Of his divine intelligence , deride The golden Unl . s that bind him to his hind ?
Shall he be proudly blind , Seeking to play a madly selfish part , JN " ot yielding band to hand and heart to heart , But striving for the individual gain , and Working the general u-oe ? The voice of all creation answers— "So I And , believing this , God in his Word has shown " It is not good for man to bo alone . "
The task each brother shares To-day this motive boars . 'Tis not alone a simple lodge we raise ; We celebrate another victory won Over the strifes that darken human days , O ' er the discords mingling with the praise Of God , in lives chiming in unison .
Unlike the victories of those Who see their glory in their slaughter'd foes , That from which each one here his solace draws , Is the calm triumph of a noble cause . Our banners no ferocious mottoes bear , But words of peace and union glitter there . The stars which glow upon each brother's breast
JNot deeds of blood , but deeds of good attest—The hand of love and solace to extend , The poor to succour and the weak defend . To live for others , not for self alone , To heal a brother ' s griefs before our own , To shape our lives to high and generous ends , "lis this , all this , to which our union tends—These are the fruits of bloodless victories gained ,
Of ampler nobis of usefulness attained . Fresh imputes to hasten on the time , Fat" glimmering now as in a dream sublime , When , in the bonds of brotherhood , mankind Shall be in one great family combined , ¦ AA ben peace si all reign ( strife ' s hideous carnage o'er ) , And love shall fill men ' s hearts and lives for evermore .
