Temper the sword of reason in the fire of contempt
Anneal the blade of kindness in the furnace of dissent
Guild the sweetened armor to fit the hand of might
Baptise the chain-mail bodice within the blood of right.

Unsheathe the steel of truth made strong by true veracity
Gripped firmly in the gauntlet the just hand of integrity
Fasten tight the breastplate adorned with human frailty
The colours of the league, the brotherhood of verity.

Issue forth the arms of war, the rapier and the sabre
Prepare to engage wickedness and all that show no favor
Deflect the willful arrows of hatred and malevolence
Stand tall alongside brothers blessed by the hand of providence.

Don the garland and the mark of those who’ve gone before
Broadsword, lance and armor, shield, scabbard and visor
Contest as one and win the battle fought since time began
Drink the chalice of courage and embark on the journey of man.
