about eight o'clock
Members made . 8 . Lodge to close with prayer , members standing . `` It was about eight o'clock , when , accompanied by a young fellow named Graham , we reached the Lodge , which , in violation of one of its own rules , was held in what was formerly called the Topertoe Tavern , but which has since been changed to the Castle Cumber Arms -- being a field _ per pale _ , on which is quartered a purse , and what seems to be an inverted utensil of lead , hammered into a coronet . In the other is a large mouth , grinning , opposite to which is a stuffed pocket , from which hangs the motto , ' _ ne quid detrimenti res privata capiat _ . ' Under the foot of the gentleman is the neck of a famine-struck woman , surrounded by naked and starving children , and it is by the convenient aid of her neck that he is enabled to reach the purse , _ or _ ; and , indeed , such is his eagerness to catch it and the coronet , that he does not seem to care much whether he strangles her or not . On the leaden coronet , is the motto , alluding to the head which fills it , ' _ similis simili gaudet _ . '
