"The Crispin trade! What better trade can be?

Ancient and famous, independent, free!

No other trade a brighter claim can find;

No other trade display more share of mind!

No other calling prouder names can boast,—

In arms, in arts,—themselves a perfect host!

All honour, zeal, and patriotic pride;

To dare heroic, and in suffering tried!

But first and chief—and as such claims inspire—

Our Patron Brothers, who doth not admire?
