The Scouts stand in a circle or horseshoe with ten candles in the center, arranged in the form of a trefoil. As each girl representing a country steps forward to say one part of the Law, she lights one of the candles.

Narrator: Today is Thinking Day, the joint birthday of our founders, the late Lord Baden-Powell, and his wife, our World Chief Guide. On this day Guides and Scouts everywhere gather to think of their Sister Guides throughout the world, and to send them greetings. In our international family we are bound together by the unseen chain of our three fold Promise and the Guide Law. Let us now bring in the Law in the words of other countries. This is the first law from Sweden.
