My Last Degree
|
|
An old man lay sick in the Masonic Home. |
I've squared each stone by the virtue square, And plumbed them all true, as I shipped them there. With the compass I've measured the Master's designs And kept within due bounds, with his points and his signs. My blue prints are folded; I've answered his signs. I'm ready for my last degree. The Mortar I've made, from friendship and love, To be spread with the Master's trowel up above. My apron is worn, but its surface is white. My working tools now will be cold and quiet. My Trestle Board's bare, and I'm going tonight. I'm ready for my last degree. A few moments later, the old man was dead. And I fancy that I could see his soul as it fled, Upward and onward, to the great door, Where he gave an alarm, and a voice did implore. The old man gave his answer with these words once more, I'm ready for my last degree. That night in a lodge, free from all strife and storm, He took that degree his last in due form. So may I live like he did; to build day by day, A spiritual house, in that land far away. So I, when I meet my Grand Master I can say, I'm ready for my last degree. Author Unknown |
