completely avoid excessive merriment original: "ausgelassene Lust", which leaves more
resentment original: "Unmuth" than pleasure behind.

If a Brother original: "Bruder" has something to point out original: "erinnern"; here meaning to raise an objection or a reminder regarding protocol,
he must bring it forward with all humility original: "Bescheidenheit" and
according to the rules of the Order original: "Orden"; yet
one must beware of criticizing original: "anzuheben"; literally to "start in on" or pick at someone a Brother too often over
trifles; this has no other benefit than to sow the seeds of a
certain annoyance. For this very reason, all forms of
mockery original: "Spöttereyen" that could provoke sensitivity or offense
must be absolutely banished from the Lodge original: "Loge".

The motto original: "Wahlspruch" of our assembly
is Unity original: "Einigkeit" and Pleasure original: "Vergnügen". A Brother who
reflects will therefore naturally strive
to maintain something which should inspire all human
societies.

Outside the Lodge

The Brothers are bound to behave toward
one another as intimate friends.
Their interaction must be [guided] by love and high esteem— The text cuts off mid-word "Hochach-"; the catchword "tung" suggests the full word is "Hochachtung" or "high esteem".
