The officers who have been chosen to govern this lodge are sufficiently conversant with the rules of propriety, and the laws of the institution, to avoid exceeding the powers with which they are entrusted; and you are of a too generous disposition to envy their preferment. I therefore trust that you will have but one aim; to please each other, and unite in the grand design of being happy and communicating happiness.
Finally, my brethren, as this fraternity has been formed and perfected in so much unanimity and concord, in which we greatly rejoice, so may it long continue. May you long enjoy every satisfaction and delight which disinterested friendship can afford. May kindness and brotherly affection distinguish your conduct as men and as Masons, within your peaceful walls, may your children’s children celebrate with joy and gratitude the transactions of this auspicious solemnity. And may the tenets of our profession be transmitted through your lodge, pure and unimpaired, from generation to generation.
