PRAYERO Lord, our Heavenly Father, the High

and Mighty Ruler of the Universe, whodost from Thy throne behold all the dwell-

ers upon earth, direct us, we beseech

Thee, in all our doings, with Thy mostgracious favor, and further us with Thycontinual help, that in all our works be-

gun, continued, and ended in Thee, we

Page 13: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

11

may glorify Thy Holy Name. And as

Thou hast taught us, in Thy Holy Word,that all our doings, without charity, are

nothing worth, send Thy Holy Spirit, andpour into our hearts the most excellent

gift of Charity, the very bond of peace andof all virtues, without which whosoeverliveth is counted dead before Thee. .

Bless and prosper, we pray Thee, everybranch and member of this our Frater-

nity, throughout the habitable earth. MayThy kingdom of peace, love, and har-

mony come. May Thy will be done onearth as it is in heaven, and the wholeworld be filled with Thy glory. Amen.

PRAYER.Vouchsafe thine aid, Almighty Father

of the Universe^ to this our present con-

vention, and grant that this candidate for

Masonry may dedicate and devote his

hfe to thy service, and become a true andfaithful brother among us. Endue himwith a competency of thy Divine Wisdom,that by the influence of the pure principles

of our order, he may the better be en-

abled to display the beauties of holiness,

to the honor of thy holy name. Amen.Response—So mote it be. (Or.) 34

Page 20: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

O Thou, who art the Author of peace

and Lover of concord, bless us in the exer-

cise of those kind and social affections

Thou hast given us. May we cherish anddisplay them as our honor and our joy.

May this, our friend, who is now to becomeour Brother, devote his life to thy service,

and consider aright the true principles of

his engagements. May he be endowedwith wisdom to direct him in all his ways;strength to support him in all his difficul-

ties ; and beauty to adorn his moral con-

duct. And may we each and ail walkwithin compass, and square our actions bythe dictates of conscience and virtue.

]\Iay we appreciate and follow the exam-ples of the wise and good, and be ever

obedient to the precepts of Thy HolyWord. Amen.

Response.—So mote it be. (Or.)

Almighty and Everlasting God, in whomalone is our trust, and who, in Thy HolyWord, hast brought life and immortality to

light, defend this Thy servant with Thyheavenly grace, that he may continue

Thine forever. Strengthen him with the

spirit of wisdom and understanding; enduehim with the fear of Thy Holy Name

;

increase in him, more and more, the spirit

Page 21: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

19

of Charity and the love of Truth. Let

Thy Fatherly hand ever be over him ; let

Thy spirit ever be with him ; and so lead

him in the knowledge and the obedience of

Thy Holy Word, that, having finished his

course below, he may at last pass peace-

fully and joyfully to mansions of rest in

Thy Temple above, that House not madewith hands, eternal in the heavens. Amen.

Response.—So mote it be.

''Behold how good and how pleas'an<t

it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.

"It is like the precious ointment uponthe head, that ran down upon the beard,

even Aaron's beard, that went down to

the skirts of his garments:

*'As the dew of Hermon, and as the dewthat descended upon the mountains of

Zion : for there the Lord commanded the

blessing, even life forevermore."

Page 22: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

20

The following- hymn may be used in-

stead of the lesson:—I.

Behold! how pleasant and how good,

For Brethren such as we,

Of the Accepted Brotherhood,

To dwell in unity.

II.

'Tis like the oil on Aaron's head,

Which to his feet distils;

Like Hermon's dew, so richly shed

On Zion's sacred hills.

III.

For there the Lord of light and love,

A blessing sent with power;

O may we all this blessing prove.

E'en life for evermore.

IV.

On Friendship's altar rising here.

Our hands now plighted be.

To live in love, with hearts sincere.

\n peace and unity,

The Twenty-Four-Inch Guage is an in-

as Free and Accepted Masons, are taught

to make use of it for the more noble andglorious purpose of dividing our time. It

being- divided into twenty-four equalparts, is emblematical of the twenty-fourhours of the day, which we are taug-ht

to divide into three parts ; whereby wefind a part for the service of God anda distressed worthy brother, a part for our

usual vocations, and a part for refreshment

and sleep.

The Common Gavel is an insitrument

made use of by operative masons to break

off the rough and superfluous parts

of stones, the better to fit them for

the builder's use; but we, as Free andAccepted Masons, are taught to make use

of it for the more noble and glorious pur-

pose of divesting our hearts and consciences

COVERING OF A LODGE

The Covering of a Lodge is the clouded

canopy, or starry-decked heaven, where all

good Masons hope at last to arrive, by the

aid of a ladder, called Jacob's Ladder, hav-

ing three principle rounds, dominatedFaith, Hope and Charity ; teaching Faith in

God, Hope in immortality, and Charity to

all mankind. But the greatest of these is

Charity ; for Faith may be lost in sight,

Hope Ends in fruition,—but Charity ex-

tends beyond the grave, to the boundless

realms of eternity.

FURNITUREThe furniture of a Lodge is the Holy

Bible, Square and Compasses. The Bible

is dedicated to God, the Square to the

Page 42: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

40

Master, and the Compasses to the Craft.

The Bible is dedicated to God, it being

tlie inestimable gift of God to mau@ on it we obglt a nwly admtd br;the Square to the Master, it being the

proper Masonic emblem of his office; and

the Compasses to the Craft, for by a dueattention to their use, we are taught to

circumscribe our desires, and keep ourpassions within due bounds with all man-kind, more especially with our Brethren in

Freemasonry.ORNAMENTS OF A LODGE

The Ornaments of a Lodge are the Mo-saic Pavement, Indented Tessel and Blaz-

ing Star.

The Mosaic Pavement is a representa-

tion of the ground floor of King Solomon'sTemple ; the Indented Tessel, of that

beautiful tesselated border, or skirting,

which surrounded it,—with the Blazing

Star in the centre. The Mosaic Pavementis emblematical of human life, checkered

with good and evil; the Indented Tessel

which surrounds it, of those manifoldblessings and comforts which surround us,

and which we hope to obtain by a faithful

reliance on Divine Providence, which is

hieroglyphically represented by the Blazing

Star in the centre.

THE JEWELSThe movable jewels are the Rough Ash-

ler, the Perfect Ashler and the Trestle-

Board.

The Rough Ashler is a stone as taken

from the quarry in its rude and natural

state. The Perfect Ashler is a stone madeready by the hands of the workmen, to beadjusted by the working-tools of the FellowCraft. The Trestle-Board is for the Mas-ter to draw his designs upon.

By the Rough Ashler we are remindedof our rude and imperfect state by nature;

by the Perfect Ashler, of that state of

perfection at which we hope to arrive, by a

virtuous education, our own endeavors, andthe blessing of God; and, by the Trestle-

Board, we are also reminded, that, as the

Page 44: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

42

operative workman erects his temporalbuilding agreeably to the rules and designs

laid down by the Master on his Trestle-

Board, so should we, both operative andspeculative, endeavor to erect our spiritual

building agreeably to the rules and designs

laid down by the Supreme Architect of the

Universe, in the great books of Nature andRevelation, which are our spiritual, moraland Masonic Trestle-Board.

The immovable jewels are the Square,

Level, and Plumb.

The Square teaches morality, the Level

equality, and the Plumb rectitude of life.

Lodges In ancient times were dedi-

cated to K S, who was our first Ms. Ex.Grand Master. In modern times to

Saint John the Baptist and Saint Johnthe EvangeHst, two eminent Christian

patrons of Freemasonry ; and since their

time there has been represented in every

regular and well-furnished Lodge, a certain

point within a circle embordered by twoperpendicular parallel lines, representing

Saint John the Baptist and Saint John the

Evangelist. Upon the top of the circle

rests the Book of Holy Scriptures. Thepoint represents an individual Brother; the

circle, the boundary line of his duty. In

going around this circle we necessarily

touch on the two parallel lines, as well as

on the Book of Holy Scriptures ; and while

a Mason keeps himself circumscribed

within their precepts, it is impossible that

he should materially err.

Page 46: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

44

The tenets of your profession as a Masonare Brotherly Love, ReHef and Truth.

By the exercise of Brotherly Love, we are

taught to regard the whole human species as

one family—the high and low, rich andpoor; who as created by one Almighty Parentand inhabitants of the same planet, are to

aid, support and protect each other. [Onthis principle. Masonry unites men of everycountry, sect and opinion, and conciliates

true friendship among those who might oth-

erwise have remained at a perpetual distance.

To Relieve the distressed is a duty incum-bent on all men; but particularly onMasons, who profess to be linked togeth-er by an indissoluble chain of sincere af-

fection. [To soothe the unhappy, sympa-thize with their misfortunes, compassion-ate their miseries, and restore peace totheir troubled minds, is the grand aim wehave in view. On this basis we form ourfriendships andestablish. ourconnections I

Truth is a divine attribute, and the foun-

dation of every virtue. To be good andtrue is the first lesson we are taught in

Masonry. On this theme we contemplate,

and by its dictates endeavor to regulate ourconduct. [Hence, while influenced by this

principle, hypocrisy and deceit are unknown

Page 47: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

45

among us, sincerity and plain dealing dis-

tinguish us, and the heart and tongue join

in promoting each other's welfare, and re-

joicing in each other's prosperity.]

The Four Cardinal Virtues—Temper-ance, Fortitude, Prudence, and Justice.

Temperance is that due restraint uponour affections and passions which rendersthe body tame and governable, and frees

the mind from the allurements of vice.

This virtue should be the constant practice

of every Mason, as he is thereby taught to

avoid excess or the contracting of anylicentious or vicious habits, the indulgence

in which might lead him to disclose someof those valuable secrets which he haspromised to conceal and never reveal,

and which would consequently subjecthim to the contempt and detestation of

Fortitude is that noble and steady pur-

pose of the mind whereby we are enabled

to undergo any pain, peril, or danger, when

Page 48: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

46

prudentially deemed expedient. This virtue

is equally distant from rashness and cow-

ardice, and, like the former, shouldbe deeply impressed upon the mind of

every Mason, as a safeguard or security

against any illeg^al attack that may bemade, by force or otherwise, to extort fromhim any of those valuable secrets with

which he has been so solemnly entrusted,

and which was emblematically represented

upon his first admission into the Lodge.

Prudence teaches us to regulate our lives

and actions agreeably to the dictates of

reason, and is that habit by which wewisely judge and prudentially determine onall things relative to our present, as well as

to our future happiness. This virtue should

be the peculiar characteristic of every

Mason, not only for the government of his

conduct while in the Lodge, but also whenabroad in the world. It should be partic-

ularly attended to in all strange andmixed companies, never to let fall the

least sig-n, token, or word, whereby the

secrets of Freemasonry may be iinlaw-

Justice is that standard or boundary ofright which enables us to render unto everyman his just due, without distinction.

This virtue is not only consistent withdivine and human laws, but is the verycement and support of civil society; and,

as justice in a great measure constitutes

the real good man, so should it be the in-

variable practice of every Mason neverto deviate from the minutest principles

patrons of Freemasonry ; and since their

time there has been represented in every

regular and well-furnished Lodge, a certain

point within a circle embordered by two

72

perpendicular parallel lines, representing

Saint John the Baptist and Saint John the

Evangelist. Upon the top of the circle

rests the Book of Holy Scriptures. Thepoint represents an individual Brother; the

circle, the boundary line of his duty. In

going around this circle we necessarily

touch on the two parallel lines, as well as

on the Book of Holy Scriptures ; and while

a Mason keeps himself circumscribed

within their precepts, it is impossible that

he should materially err.

BROTHERLY LOVE

By the exercise of Brotherly Love, we are

taught to regard the whole human species as

one family—the high and low, rich andpoor; who as created by one Almighty Parentand inhabitants of the same planet, are to

aid, support and protect each other. [Onthis principle, Masonry unites men of everycountry, sect and opinion, and conciliates

true friendship among those who might oth-

Brwise have remained at a perpetual distance.

73RELIEF

To Relieve the distressed is a duty incum-

bent on all men; but particularly onMasons, who profess to be linked tog^eth-

er by an indissoluble chain of sincere af-

fection. [To soothe the unhappy, sympa-thize with their misfortunes, compassion-ate their miseries, and restore peace to

their troubled minds, is the grand aim wehave in view. On this basis we form ourfriendships andestablish ourconnectionsj

Expln trh.

TRUTHTruth is a divine attribute, and the foun-

dation of every virtue. To be good andtrue is the first lesson we are taught in

Masonry. On this theme we contemplate,and by its dictates endeavor to regulate ourconduct. [Hence, while influenced by this

principle, hypocrisy and deceit are unknownamong us, sincerity and plain dealing dis-

tinguish us, and the heart and tongue join

in promoting each other^s welfare, and re-

joicing in each other's prosperity.]

74TEMPERANCE

Temperance is that due restraint uponour affections and passions which rendersthe body tame and governable, and frees

the mind from the allurements of vice.

This virtue should be the constant practice

of every Mason, as he is thereby taught to

avoid excess or the contracting of anylicentious or vicious habits, the indulgence

in which might lead him to disclose someof those valuable secrets w^hich he has

promised to conceal and never reveal,

and which would consequently subjecthim to the contempt and detestation of

Expln frtud.FORTITUDE

Fortitude is that noble and steady pur-

pose of the mind whereby we are enabled

to undergo any pain, peril, or danger, whenprudentially deemed expedient. This virtue

is equally distant from rashness and cow-

ardice, and, like the former, shouldbe deeply impressed upon the mind of

every Mason, as a safeguard or security

ag-ainst any illegfal attack that may bemade, by force or otherwise, to extort from

Page 77: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

him any of those valuable secrets with

which he has been so solemnly entrusted,

and which was emblematically represented

upon his first admission into the Lodge.

PRUDENCEPrudence teaches us to regulate our lives

and actions agreeably to the dictates of

reason, and is that habit by which wewisely judge and prudentially determine onall things relative to our present, as well as

to our future happiness. This virtue should

be the peculiar characteristic of every

Mason, not only for the government of his

conduct while in the Lodge, but also whenabroad in the v^orld. It should be partic-

ularly attended to in all strang-e andmixed companies, never to let fall theleast si§:n, token, or word, whereby thesecrets of Freemasonry may be unlaw-fly obtd, evr brng in rmbre tt mmrblprd whn kn at -H 4-) oil lis n 1 k, hs

JUSTICE

Justice Is that standard or boundary ofright which enables us to render unto everyman his just due, without distinction.

This virtue is not only consistent withdivine and human laws, but is the verycement and support of civil society ; and,

as justice in a great measure constitutes

the real good man, so should it be the in-

variable practice of every Mason never

to deviate from the minutest principles

Though I speak with the tongues of menand of angels, and have not charity, I ambecome as sounding brass or a tinkling

cymbal. And though I have the gift of

prophecy, and understand all mysteries andall knowledge, and though I have all faith,

so that I could remove mountains, and

Page 99: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

97

have not charity, I am nothing. Andthough I bestow all my goods to feed the

poor, and though I give my body to be

burned, and have not charity, it profiteth

me nothing. Charity suffereth long, andis kind; charity envieth not; charity

vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth

not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her

own, is not easily provoked, thinketh noevil, rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth

in the truth; beareth all things, believeth

all things, hopeth all things, endureth all

thing's. And now, abideth faith, hope,chairity, these three ; but the greatest ofthese is charity.

The following hymn may be used in

place of the lesson :

Had I the gift of tongues,

Great God, without Thy grace,

My loudest words, my loftiest songs,

Would be but sounding brass.

IL

Though Thou shouldst give me skill

Each mystery to explain

;

Without a heart to do Thy will,

My knowledge would be vain. 3^

in.

Had I such faith in God,

As mountains to remove,

No faith could work effectual good,

That did not work by love.

IV.

Grant, then, this one request,

Whatever be denied,

That love divine may rule my breast,

And all my actions guide.

the Level, to prove horizontals ; but we, as

Free and Accepted Masons, are taught to

make use of them for more noble and glori-

to walk uprightly in our several stations

before God and man, squaring our actions

by the Square of virtue, ever remem-bering that we are traveling upon the Levelof time to "that undiscovered country fromwhose bourne no traveler returns."

OPERATIVE MASONRYBy Operative Masonry, we allude to a

proper application of the useful rules of ar-

chitecture, whence a structure will derive

figure, strength, and beauty, and from whichwill result a due proportion and just corre-

spondence in all its parts. It furnishes us

with dwellings, and convenient shelters fromthe vicissitudes and inclemencies of the sea-

sons, and while it displays the effects of hu-man wisdom, as well in the choice as in the

arrangement of the sundry materials of

which an edifice is composed, it demon-strates that a fund of science and industryis implanted in man for the best, most salu-

tary, and beneficent purposes.

SPECULATIVE MASONRYBy Speculative Masonry, we learn to sub-

due the passions, act upon the Square, keepa tongue of good report, maintain secrecy,

and practise charity. It is so far interwovenwith religion, as to lay us under obligations

to pay that rational homage to Deitywhich at once constitutes our duty and ourhappiness. It leads the contemplative to

view with reverence and admiration the glo^

tions of his Divine Creator.

From the first formation of society, order

in architecture may be traced. When the

rigor of seasons first obhged men to contrive

shelter from the inclemency of the weather,

we learn that they planted trees on end,

and then laid others across, to support a cov-

ering. The bands which connected those

trees at top and bottom are said to havegiven rise to the idea of the base and capital

of pillars, and from this simple hint originally

proceeded the more improved art of archi-

tecture.

The Orders are thus classed: Tuscan,

Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite.

The ancient and original orders of archi-

tecture, esteemed by Masons, are no morethan three—the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian,

which were invented by the Greeks. Tothese the Romans have added two—the Tus-can, which they made plainer than the Doric;and the Composite, which was more orna-

Page 115: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

113

mental, if not more beautiful, than the Corin-

thian. The first three orders alone, how-ever, show invention and particular charac-

ter, and essentially differ from each other;

the two others have nothing but what is bor-

rowed, and differ only accidentally. TheTuscan is the Doric in its earliest state; andthe Composite is the Corinthian, enriched

with the Ionic. To the Greeks, therefore,

and not to the Romans, we are indebted for

what is great, judicious, and distinct, in

architecture.

FIVE HUMAN SENSES.

five human senses—Hearing, Seeing, Feel-

The fifth, Geometry, is most esteemed by

Masons. It is that science which treats of

the powers and properties of magnitudesin general, where length, breadth andthickness are considered—from a point to a

line, from a line to a superfice, from a su-

perfice to a solid.

A point is position without dimensions.

A line, a figure of one capacity, namely,

length.

A superfice, a figure of two dimensions,

length and breadth.

A solid, a figure of three dimensions,

length, breadth and thickness.

ARCHITECTURAL. ADVANTAGES OF GEOMETRY

By this science the architect is enabled to

construct his plans and execute his designs

;

the general, to arrange his soldiers ; the

engineer, to mark out grounds for encamp-ments ; the geographer, to give us the di-

mensions of the world and all things there-

in contained, to delineate the extent of seas,

and to specify the divisions of empires,

kingdoms, and provinces. By it, also, the

astronomer is enabled' to make his observa-

tions and to fix the duration of times andseasons, years and cycles. In fine, Geom-etry is the foundation of architecture andthe root of the mathematics.

GEOMETRY.MORAL. ADVANTAGES OF GEOMETRY

By Geometry, we may curiously trace

nature, through her various windings, to hermost concealed recesses. By it, we discover

the power, wisdom, and goodness of the

Grand Artificer of the Universe, and viewwith delight the proportions of this vast ma-chine. By it, we discover how the planets

move in their respective orbits, and demon-strate their various revolutions. By it, weaccount for the return of seasons, and the

variety of scenes which each season displays

to the discerning eye. Numberless worldsare around us, all framed by the sameDivine Artist, which roll through the vast

expanse, and are all conducted by thesame unerring law of nature.

A survey of nature, and the observation of

her beautiful proportions, first determinedman to imitate the Divine plan, and studysymmetry and order. This gave rise to so-

cieties, and birth to every useful art. Thearchitect began to design; and the planswhich he laid down, being improved by timeand experience, have produced works whichare the admiration of every age.

The lapse of time, the ruthless hand of ig-

norance, and the devastations of war, havelaid waste ^nd destroyed many valuable

Page 122: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

120

monuments of antiquity, on which the ut-

most exertions of human genius have beenemployed. Even the Temple of Solomon,so spacious and magnificent, and constructedby so many celebrated artists, escaped notthe unsparing ravages of barbarous force.

Freemasonry, notwithstanding, still sur-

vives. The attentive ear receives the soundfrom the instructive tongue, and the mysteriesof Masonry are safely lodged in the reposi-

tory of faithful breasts. Tools and imple-

ments of architecture, symbols most expres-

sive, have been selected by the Fraternity,

to imprint on the memory wise and serious

truths; and thus, through a succession of

ages, are transmitted unimpaired the mostexcellent tenets of our Institution.

The Plumb is an instrument made use of

by operative Masons, to try perpendiculars;

the Square, to square their work; and the

Level, to prove horizontals; but we, as Freeand Accepted Masons, are taught to makeuse of them for more noble and glorious pur-

poses. The Plumb admonishes us to walkuprightly in our several stations before Godand man, squaring our actions by the square

of virtue, ever remembering that we are

traveling upon the level of time, to '' that undiscovered country, from whose bourne notraveler returns."

By Operative Masonry, we allude to a

proper application of the useful rules of ar-

chitecture, whence a structure will derive

figure, strength, and beauty, and from w^hich

will result a due proportion and just corre-

spondence in all its parts. It furnishes us

with dwellings, and convenient shelters fromthe vicissitudes and inclemencies of the sea-

sons, and while it displays the effects of hu-

man wisdom, as well in the choice as in the

arrangement of the sundry materials of

which an edifice is composed, it demon-strates that a fund of science and industry

is implanted in man for the best, most salu-

tary, and beneficent purposes.

Ci)t is mnt b spctv (i)y.

By Speculative Masonry, we learn to sub-

due the passions, act upon the Square, keepa tongue of good report, maintain secrecy,

and practise charity. It is so far interwovenwith religion, as to lay us under obligations

to pay that rational homage to Deitywhich at once constitutes our duty and ourhappiness. It leads the contemplative to

rious works of creation, and inspires himwith the most exalted ideas of the perfections

of his Divine Creator.

Ci)t is mnt b ord i arte.

By order in architecture, is meant a sys-

tem of all the members, proportions, and or-

naments of columns and pilasters; or, it is

a regular arrangement of the projecting parts

of a building, which, united with those of, a

column, form a beautiful, perfect, and com-plete whole.

Of wt antqy is ord in arte.

From the first formation of society order

in architecture may be traced. When the

rigor of seasons first obliged men to con-

trive shelter from the inclemency of the

weather, we learn that they plantedtrees on end, and then laid others across to

support a covering. The bands which con-

nected those trees at top and bottom are

said to have given rise tp* the idea of the

Page 135: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

133

base and capital of pillars; and from this

simple hint originally proceeded the moreimproved art of architecture.

The ancient and original orders of archi-

tecture, esteemed by Masons, are no morethan three—the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian,

which were invented by the Greeks. Tothese the Romans have added two—the Tus-can, which they made plainer than the Doric;

and the Composite, which was more orna-

mental, if not more beautiful, than the Corin-

thian. The first three orders alone, how-ever, show invention and particular charac-

ter, and essentially differ from each other;

the two others have nothing but what is bor-

rowed, and differ only accidentally. TheTuscan is the Doric in its earliest state; andthe Composite is the Corinthian, enrichedwith the Ionic. To the Greeks, therefore,

and not to the Romans, we are indebted for

what is great, judicious, and distinct, in

architecture.

By this science, the architect is enabled to

construct his plans, and execute his designs;

the general, to arrange his soldiers; the engi-

neer, to mark out grounds for encampments;the geographer, to give us the dimensions of

the world, and all things therein contained,

to delineate the extent of seas, and specify

the divisions of empires, kingdoms and prov-

inces. By it, also, the astronomer is enabledto make his observations, and to fix the du-ration of times and seasons, years and cycles.

In fine. Geometry is the foundation of archi-

tecture, and the root of the mathematics.

to the discerning eye. Numberless worldsare around us, all framed by the sameDivine Artist, which roll through the vast

expanse, and are all conducted by the

same unerring law of nature.

A survey of nature, and the observation of

her beautiful proportions, first determinedman to imitate the Divine plan, and studysymmetry and order. This gave rise to so-

cieties, and birth to every useful art. Thearchitect began to design; and the plans

which he laid down, being improved by timeand experience, have produced works whichare the admiration of every age.

The lapse of time, the ruthless hand of ig-

norance, and the devastations of war, havelaid waste and destroyed many valuable

monuments of antiquity, on which the ut-

most exertions of human genius have beenemployed. Even the Temple of Solomon,so spacious and magnificent, and constructed

by so many celebrated artists, escaped notthe unsparing ravages of barbarous force.

Freemasonry, notwithstanding, still sur-

vives. The attentive ear receives the soundfrom the instructive tongue, and the mysteries'

of Masonry are safely lodged in the reposi-

tory of faithful breasts. Tools and imple-

ments of architecture, symbols most expres-

sive, have been selected by the Fraternity,

Page 142: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

140

to imprint on the memory wise and serious

truths; and thus, through a succession of

ages, are transmitted unimpaired the mostexcellent tenets of our Institution.

Remember now thy Creator in the daysof thy youth, while the evil days come not,

nor the years draw nig-h, when thou shalt

say, I have no pleasure in them ; whilethesun, or theligfht, or the moon, or the stars,

Page 165: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

163

be not darkened, nor the clouds return after

the rain : in the day when the keepers of the

house shall tremble, and the strong men shall

bow themselves, and the grinders cease be-

cause they are few, and those that look out

of the windows be darkened, and the doorsshall be shut in the streets, when the soundof the grinding is low, and he shall rise up at

the voice of the bird, and all the daughtersof music shall be brought low; also whenthey shall be afraid of that which is high,

and fears shall be in the way, and the al-

mondtree shall flourish, and the grasshoppershall be a burden, and desire shall fail: be-

cause man goeth to his long home, and the

mourners go about the streets; or ever the

silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl bebroken, or the pitcher be broken at the foun-

tain, or the wheel broken at the cistern.

Then shall the dust return to the earth as it

was; and the spirit shall return unto Godwho gave it.

The following hymn may be used instead

of the lesson :

I.

Let us remember in oiir youth,

Before the evil days draw nigh,

Our Great Creator, and his Truth !

Ere memory fail, and pleasure fly;; ;

Page 166: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

ia4

Or sun, or moon, or planets' light

Grow dark, or clouds return in gloom;

Ere vital spark no more incite;

When strength shall bow and years consume.

II.

Let us in youth remember HimWho formed our frame and spirits gave,

Ere windows of the mind grow dim.

Or door of speech obstructed wave;

When voice of bird fresh terrors wake

And music's daughters charm no more;

Or fear to rise, with trembling shake.

Along the path we travel o'er.

III.

In youth, to God let memory cling,

Before desire shall fail or wane.

Or e're be loosed life's silver string.

Or bowl at fountain rent in twain;

For man to his long home doth go,

And mourners group around his urn;

Our dust to dust again must flow,

And spirits unto God return.

— : ODE :—

FUNERAL HYMN

Ttuic of Pteyers Hymn.

Solemn strikes the fun'ral chime,

Notes of our departing time;

As we journey here below,

Through a pilgrimage of woe.

Lord of all ! below—above

Fill our souls with truth and love;

When dissolves our earthly tie,

Take us to Thy Lodge on high.

Thou, God, knowest our down-sittingand our up-rising, and understandest ourthoughts afar off. Shield and defend usfrom the evil intentions of our enemies, andsupport us under the trials and afflictions

we are destined to endure while traveling

through this vale of tears. Man that is bornof a woman is of few days and full of

trouble. He cometh forth as a flower andis cut down; he fleeth also as a shadow andcontinueth not. Seeing his days are deter-

mined, the number of his months are withThee; Thou hast appointed his bounds thathe cannot pass; turn from him that he mayrest, till he shall accomplish his day. Forthere is hope of a tree, if it be cut down,

Page 193: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

191

that it will sprout again, and that the ten-

der branch thereof will not cease. But mandieth and wasteth away; yea, man giveth upthe ghost, and where is he? As the watersfail from the sea, and the flood decayeth anddrieth up, so man lieth down, and riseth

not up till the heavens shall be no more.Yet, O Lord, have compassion on the chil-

dren of Thy creation; administer them com-fort in time of trouble, and save them withan everlasting salvation. Amen.

Response. So mote it be. {Or.)

O God, in whose hand our breath is, webow in Thy presence with a sense of the

frailty and uncertainty of this mortal life.

It is appointed unto man once to die. Butwe thank Thee, that in Thy great mercy,

Thou hast made known to us the life beyondthe grave, so that all may look hopefully

forward beyond the shadows that now sur-

round us. Help us so to perform the duties

assigned to us, here, that when we shall

depart this life, we may die in hope of a

blissful immortality, and Thy name shall

have the praise forever. Amen.

Response.—So mote it be.

THREE STEPS

The Three Steps usually delinated onthe Master's carpet, are emblematical of the

three principal stages of human life : Youth,

Manhood, and Age. They also allude to

the three degrees in Freemasonry, Entered

Apprentice, Fellowcraft and Master Mason.In Youth, as Entered Apprentices, weought industriously to occupy our minds in

the attainment of useful knowledge; in

Manhood, as Fellow Crafts, we should ap-

ply that knowledge to the discharge of ourrespective duties to God, our neighbor, andourselves; so that, in Age, as Master Ma-sons, we may enjoy the happy reflection

consequent on a well-spent life, and die in

the hope of a glorious immortality.

THE POT OF INCENSE.

The Pot of Incense is an emblem of a pureheart, which is always an acceptable sacri-

fice to Deity; [and as this glows with fer-

vent heat, so should our hearts continually

glow with gratitude to the great and benefi-

cent Author of our existence for the mani-fold blessings and comforts we enjoy.]

THE BEE HIVE.

The Bee-Hive is an emblem of industry,

jand recommends the practice of that virtue

to all created beings [from the highest seraphin heaven to the lowest reptile of the dust.

It teaches us that ,as vv^e came into the worldrational and intelligent beings, so we shouldever be industrious ones; never sitting downcontented while our fellow-creatures aroundus are in want, especially when it is in

our power to relieve them without incon-

venience to ourselves.

[When we take a survey of nature, we viewman in his infancy, more helpless and indi-

Page 200: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

198

gent than the brute creation; he lies lan-

guishing for days, months, and years totally

incapable of providing sustenance for him-self, of guarding against the attacks of thewild beasts of the field, or sheltering himself

from the inclemencies of the weather.

[It might have pleased the great Creator,

of heaven and earth to have made manindependent; but, as dependence is oneof the strongest bonds of society, man-kind were made dependent on each other

for protection and security, as theythereby enjoy better opportunities of ful-

filling the duties of reciprocal love and friend-

ship. Thus was man fonned for social andactive life, the noblest part of the workof God; and he that will so demean himself

as not to be endeavoring to add to the com-mon stock of knowledge and understanding,

may be deemed a drone in the hive of nature,

a useless member of society, and unworthyof our protection as Masons.]

The Book of Constitutions, guarded bythe Tyler's sword, reminds us that we should

be ever watchful and guarded in our thoughts,

words and actions, particularly when before

the uninitiated; ever bearing in remem-brance those truly Masonic yirtueS; slience

i^nd ci7xu7?ispection.

Page 201: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

199THE SWORD.

The Sword, pointing to a naked Heart?demonstrates that justice will sooner or later

overtake us; [and although our thoughts,

words and actions may be hidden from the

eyes of man, yet that all-seeing eye, whomthe SUN, MOON and stars obey/ and underwhose watchful care even comets performtheir stupendous revolutions, pervades the

inmost recesses of the human heart, and will

ireward us according to our merits.]

i

The Anchor and Ark are emblems of a well

I grounded ho^pe, and a vrell-spent life. [Theyare emblematical of that divine ark whichsafely wafts us over this tempestuous sea of

troubles, and that anchor which shall safely

I

moor us in a peaceful harbor, where the

[

wicked cease from troubling, and the weary' shall find rest.]

The Forty-seventh Problem of Euclid,

was an invention of our ancient friend andI brother, the great Pythagoras, [who, in his

I

travels through Asia, Africa and Europe,' was initiated into several orders of Priest-

\

hood, and is said to have been raised to the

,sublime degree of Master Mason. This wisephilosopher enriched his mind abundantlyin a general knowledge of things, moreespecially in Geometry, or Masonr3^ On this

subject he drew out many problems and

Page 202: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

200

theorems; and, among the most distingu-

ished, he erected this, when, in the joy

of his heart, he ex(;laimed Eureka.' sigmiy'ing^

in the Grecian language,/ have found it: andupon the discovery of which he is said to

have sacrificed a hecatomb.] It teaches

Masons to be general lovers of the arts andsciences.

The Hour-Glass is an emblem of humanlife. Behold! how swiftly the sands run,

and how rapidly our lives are drawing to a

close ! We can not without astonishment

behold the little particles which are con-

tained in this machine ;—how they pass

away almost imperceptibly! and yet, to our

surprise, in the short space of an hour they

are all exhausted. Thus wastes man ! To-day, he puts forth the tender leaves of hope

;

to-morrow, blossoms, and bears his blush-

ingf honors thick upon him; the nextday comes a frost which nips the shoot ; andwhen he thinks his greatness is still aspir-

ing, he falls, like autumn leaves, to enrich

our mother earth.

THE SCYTHE

The Scythe is an emblem of time, whichcuts the brittle thread of life, and launchesus into eternity. [Behold what havoc theScythe of Time makes among the human

Page 203: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

201

race! If by chance we should escape thenumerous evils incident to childhood andyouth, and with health and vigor arrive

at the years of manhood, yet withal wemust be cut down by the all-devouring

Scythe of Time, and be gathered into the

land where our fathers have gone before us.]

In Youth, as Entered Apprentices, weought industriously to occupy our minds in

the attainment of useful knowledge; in

Manhood, as Fellow Crafts, we should ap-

ply that knowledge to the discharge of our

respective duties to God, our neighbor, andourselves ; so that, in Age, as Master Ma-sons, we may enjoy the happy reflection

consequent on a well-spent life, and die in

the hope of a glorious immortality.

It in an emblem of industry, and rec-ommends the practice of that virtueto all created beings [from the highest seraphin heaven to the lowest reptile of the dust.

It teaches us that ,as we came into the worldrational and intelligent beings, so we shouldever be industrious ones; never sitting downcontented while our fellow-creatures aroundus are in want, especially when it is in

our power to relieve them without incon-

venience to ourselves.

[When we take a survey of nature, we viewman in his infancy, more helpless and indi-

gent than the brute creation; he lies lan-

guishing for days, months, and years totally

incapable of providing sustenance for him-self, of guarding against the attacks of thewdld beasts of the field, or sheltering himself

from the inclemencies of the weather.

[It might have pleased the great Creator,

of heaven and earth to have made manindependent; but, as dependence is oneof the strongest bonds of society, man-kind were made dependent on each otherfor protection and security, as they

224

thereby enjoy better opportunities of fuUfilling the duties of reciprocal love and friend-

ship. Thus was man formed for social andactive life, the noblest part of the workof God; and he that will so demean himself

as not to be endeavoring to add to the com-mon stock of knowledge and understanding,

may be deemed a drone in the hive of nature,

a useless member of society, and unworthyof our protection as Masons.]

It reminds us that we should be ever

watchful and guarded in our thoug^hts,

remembrance those truly Masonic vir-

It demonstrates that justice willsooner orlater

overtake us; [and although our thoughts,

words and actions may be hidden from the

eyes of man, yet that all-seeing eye, whomthe SUN, MOON and stars obey, and underwhose watchful care even comets performtheir stupendous revolutions, pervades the

inmost recesses of the human heart, and will

reward us according to our merits.]

This was an invention of our ancient friend

and brother, the great Pythagoras, [who in

his travels through Asia, Africa and Europe,was initiated into several orders of Priest-

hood, and is said to have been raised to thesublime degree of Master Mason. This wisephilosopher enriched his mind abundantlyin a general knowledge of things, moreespecially in Geometry, or Masonry. On this

subject he drew out many problems andtheorems; and, among the most distingu-

ished, he erected this, when, in the joy

of his heart, he exclaimed E'iireA^a/ signifying,

in the Grecian language,/ have found it : andupon the discovery of which he is said to

have sacrificed a hecatomb.] It teaches

Masons to be general lovers of the arts andsciences.

It is an emblem of hnman life. Be*hold! how swiftly the sands run,

and how rapidly our lives are drawing to a

close ! We can not without astonishmentbehold the little particles which are con-

tained in this machine ;—how they pass

away almost imperceptibly! and yet, to our

surprise, in the short space of an hour they

are all exhausted. Thus wastes man ! To-day, he puts forth the tender leaves of hope

;

to-morrow, blossoms, and bears his blush-

ingf honors thick upon him; the nextday comes a frost which nips the shoot ; andwhen he thinks his greatness is still aspir-

ing, he falls, like autumn leaves, to enrich

our mother earth.

Expl -H scy.

It is an emblem of time, which cuts

the. brittle thread of life, and hmnchesus into eternity. [Behold what havoc the

Sc3'the of Time makes among the humanrace! If by chance we should escape the nu-

merous evils incident to childhood and youthand, with health and vigor arrive at the

years of manhood, yet withal we must soon

be cut down by the all-devouring Scythe

of Time and be gathered into the land whereour fathers have gone before us.]

Kin^ SolomonThis is the general title of a series of com-

plete Instructors for Blue Lodges, for the use

of ofiQcers and all who are ambitious to

become bright workers. They contain the

Opening, Work, Lectures and Closing, in the

Degrees of Entered Apprentice^ Fellow Craft

and Master Mason? thus embracing every-

thing in its regular order as worked in each

degree except the essential secrets ; the wholegiven by a system intelligible only to the

initiated, but easily understood by them.

Carefully edited and printed from new type.

There are separate editions of these in-

structors, each edition containing the stand-

ard work of a particular State.

Having recently been critically revised bycompetent authorities in the different GrandJurisdictions, their accuracy may be relied

upon, and being bound in pocket size (3^ x5^ ) , with complete index, are very conven-

ient for ready reference, enabling one to re-

fresh his memory during his spare moments.No practical member will be without one

after he has examined it.

KL T. W. S. S. T. K, S.—A complete In-

structor for Officers and Members of the

Chapter in accordance with the standard

Page 240: King Solomon and His Followers, Mass

fl^ork and lectures. Intelligible only to R.A . Ms. Also recently revised.

ROYAL AND SELECT MASTERS.-Containing the Ritual of the Council Degrees,

revised.

IN HOC SIGNO VINCES—Containingthe Revised Ritual of the Commandery.The above books are firmly bound in

emblematic colored leather, making themnearly indistructable and at the same time

flexible for pocket use.

For want of an authentic instfuctor, it is a

well-known fact that members are using the

Open Exposest old and spurious works,

published in New York and Chicago, As

they are highly erroneous and sold to the

public at target as well as to the Fraternity,

their use is corrupting the ritual and sub-

verting the order. To correct this evil and

meet the demand for a work of this nature

that is both accurate and legitimate, these

Instructors have been prepared.

No further occasion now remains for the

embarassing breaks and delays in working

the degrees ; for by the aid of one of these

instructors an officer is always enabled to

accurately and promptly exemplify any de-

gree, and the members can qualify them-

aelves for any position.
