SONG XXIV.
I.
COtne, come, my dear brethren,
Great news I proclaim :
Our king’s a free mafon,
A mafon of fame :
And tho’ he’s a king,
He’s a brother to me :
No mortals but malbns
So great then can be.
So great then can be.
So great then can be;
No mortals but mafons
So great then can be.
II.
Who would not be proud, lay,
Of fucli a great name ?
He that’s a free malbn
Is a true fon of fame ;
Since kings, dukes, and princes.
Men of high degree,
Throw by their diftindions.
With us to be free.
With us to be free, &c.
III.
We’re Ions of antiquity.
But not of pride ;
The fathers of old, they
Were all on our fide.
