“ May the horns of a buck never disgrace the sportsman's brow
May our hounds, horses, and hearts, never fail us
May every fox-hunter be well mounted
May those who love the crack of the whip never want a blush to pursue
The jolly sportsman that never beats about the bush
The jolly sportsman that enters the covert without being bit by the fox
The huntress that never fails to start game
The gallant huntsman, that plunges into the deep in pursuit of his game
The brave sportsman, that always erects his crest when he sees his game
The huntsman's deer that does not wear horns ”

“ May the mind never feel the decay of the body
May the rich be charitable and the poor grateful
May the best day we have seen be the worst we have to come
May we live to learn and learn to live well
May virtue find fortune always an attendant
May reality strengthen the joys of imagination
May harmony arise from the ashes of discord
May temptation never conquer virtue
May wisdom and discretion be our topsail
May we act our parts well on the theatre of life
May every moment be as happy as the last
May we live respected and die regretted
May the fiery trial of adversity lead us to prosperity ”

“ May our commanders have the eye of a Hawk and the heart of a Wolfe
May the sword of justice be swayed by the hand of mercy
May the seeds of dissension never find growth in the soil of Great Britain
May the meanest Briton scorn the highest slave of Church and King
Britons in unity, and unity in Britain. ”

“ May paper-credit never lend to corruption wings to soar
May the liberties of the people be immortal
May the blossoms of liberty never be lighted
May the laws of the land be always consonant to those of nature
May the halt of our enemies always betray the lameness of their designs
May equity govern each branch of the law
Our country—may it continue to be the land of liberty to the end of the world

“ May the Mason's conduct be so uniform, that he may not be ashamed to take a retrospective view of it
The absent Brethren of this Lodge
May the Brethren of our glorious Craft be ever distinguished in the world by their regular lives, more than by their gloves and aprons
May every worthy Brother, who is willing to work and labour through the day, be happy at night with his friend, his love, and a cheerful glass
Every Brother who keeps the key of knowledge from intruders, but cheerfully gives it to a worthy Brother
May Masonry flourish until nature expire. ”
