Three times he visited the British shore,

And every time a different name he bore.

The brave Alsatians he with ease cajol’d

By boasting of Egyptian forms of old.

The self-same trick he practis’d at Bourdeaux,

At Strasburg, Lyons, and at Paris too.

But fate for Brother Mash reserv’d the task

To strip the vile impostor of his mask,

May all true Masons his plain tale attend

And Satire’s lash to fraud shall put an end.”
