The horn'd Buck and Gallican,*
As the monkey imitates the man,

* Here is meant a certain club who call themselves Anti gallic Masons, and not the laudable association of Antigalli. cans, whom I esteem as an honourable and useful Society, and worthy of imitation.

Their clubs do lodges call,:
Their clubs, &c.

While ancient masons know full weil,

No fools like those amongst them dwell,

No, no, nor never shall,

No, no, nor never shall.

VI.

My brethren take glass in hand,

And toast our noble master grand,
And in full chorus sing,
And in, &c.

A health to ancient masons free,

Throughout the globe where'er they be,

And so God save the King,
And so God save the King.

To all ancient Masons, wheresoever dispers'd or oppress'd,

round the globe, &c.

Next sing my muse, our warden's praise,

My brethren all come join with me,
To sing the praise of masonry;

The noble, faithful, and the brave,

Whose arts shall live beyond the grave...

There were architects four,

Where billows did roar,

Were saved from that great inundation;

Who's father on high,

Taught Geometry,

That honour'd science of a mason.

VI.

In an ark that was good,

Made of good Gopher wood,

And was built by divine ordination;

And the first in his time,

That planted a vine,

Was a free and an accepted mason.

V.

Then Nimrod the great

Did next undertake

To build him to heav'n a station;

But tongues of all kind,

Prevented his mind,

For he was no excellent mason.

VI.

When Pharaoh the king

Of Egypt, did bring

To bondage our whole generation;

That king got a fall,

And his magicians all,

By a princely and learned wise mason.

Then thro' the Red Sea,
Heav'n guided their way,
By two pillars of divine ordination;

And Pharaoh's great train,
Were lost in the main,

For pursuing an army of masons.

VIII.

When Amelick's king

Great forces did bring,

Likewise the great Midianite nation,

Those kings got a fall,

And their great armies all,

And their wealth fell a spoil to those masons.
