The lonely Masonic student \ v ] io , in his solitary meditations , has discovered truth , has found it necessary for him to find man as well as God , that yon must love his fellow beings , or his prayers find no access to the throne of the Supreme .

It has been for all the people , the high , the low , the rich , the poor , who were under the tongue of good report .
