May I be a friend to those around me, And all I find afar. May I ever be respected By my brothers at the bar. Let duty be my calling, And honor be my creed. Let me help alike the wealthy And those I find in need. When fees and bread concern me, May I somehow not despair; And no matter what the circumstances May I never be unfair. When twilight comes upon me May I know my hands are clean, Free of all of the corruption And the e il I have seen. May my record mirror diligence. And the good things that I saw. When I seek mercy and not justice From the Architect of Law. Melvin H. ndklm. n 53 WILLIAM J. A.
