THE LAMBSKIN

THE LAMBSKIN – A POEM BY EDGAR A. GUEST

THE LAMBSKIN A POEM BY EDGAR A. GUEST It is not ornamental, the cost is not great, There are other things far more useful, yet truly I state, Tho of all my possessions, there's none can compare, With that white leather apron, which all Masons wear.

The Masonic Ring Those men who help my dad each day, They wear those Mason rings. A Square and Compass set in gold, The praise of which I sing.   My dad, he hurt his back you know, One cold and wintery day.
