 Object of Masonry in well defined by a poet. It is :

To raise the weak, restrain the strong.  To chase the tear from sorrow's eye.  To aid the right , to check the wrong and bid the      weary cease to sign.  To smooth the orphan's mournful cry.  A brother help's wherever he be.  To love all men beneath the sky.  This is the bond of Masonry.
