Finally, my brethren, as this association has been formed and perfected with so much unanimity and concord, in which we greatly rejoice, so may it long continue. May you long enjoy every satisfaction and delight which disinterested friendship can afford. May kindness and brotherly affection distinguish your conduct, as men and as Masons. Within your peaceful walls may your children's children celebrate with joy and gratitude the transactions of this auspicious solemnity. And may the tenets of our profession be transmitted through your Lodge, pure and unimpaired from generation to generation.

Lodge, No. . ., to be legally constituted and consecrated, and the officers thereof duly installed, with the grand honors of Masonry by three times three.
The grand honors are given, and the following Ode is sung:
