• The Queen;

• The Earl of Durham — the Lieutenant-Governor and their families;

• The Army and Navy — defenders of our rights and privileges;

• May peace and prosperity reign throughout the Canadas and never again be disturbed by internal commotions or foreign policy;

• Our coloured Brethren and Sisters all over the world;

• May those who are now cruelly detained in slavery soon enjoy the same freedom as ourselves;

• Honour, honesty, humanity, humility, health, and happiness;

• Prosperity to the plough and axe;

• May unity, concord, and friendship always exist amongst us;

• When the devil comes into our ranks, may we all help to kick him out;

• Prosperity to civilization in African and the free settlements of Liberia; and

• Success to Great Britain and all other countries interested in the cause of freedom.7
