LECTURE.
The moral instruction relative to this grade presents a re-
capitulation of all Masonry and is divided into 15 sections, of
which the following is an analysis.
FIRST SECTION.
9. In what placewas the order established?
A. First at Icobcolnll, then at Etiwinning (Killincn), where
the King of Scotland presided m person as Grand Master.
9. Why was it established 9 -
A. To reform the errors and correct the abuses which were
introduced among the brothers of thc tirst three grades
9. What are the quahties reguisite for admission into t]ie
Order?
A. Patience, Prudence, Firmness Justice. (The sign and
word of Master Mason is then given.)
9. Give me your name and title
A. Ghiblim is my title, Acacia is my name.
At the end of this section the obligation is given; then they
begin to travel in search of the lost word.
SECOND SECTION.
It contains an exercise on the numbers 9, 7, 5, 3, after the
manner of the treatise of Bongo and of Oncien There are 9
unities, 9 muses, 9 orders of angels, 7 days of creation, 7 liberal
sciences, 7 angels before the throne of the ]amb, 6 measures of
time, 5 ordei s of architecture, 5 points of conipamonship, 3 terms
of a syllogism, 3 angles in a triangle, 3 persons in God, &c.
TREED SECTION.
The Son of Man is in this symbohsed by the corner stone
(Perpend-aster), which, rejected by the builders, has been placed
at the angle of the edifice, and is the most perfect model of the
Workmen to test their motal jewels upon Tinee great points
distinguish it,Fraternal Love, Succoor, Truth Its name is
Heleanam, or sometimes El Chanan These two words signify
Grace of God, and not, as we are told in the manuals, God is
with us; Eulaituel has the latter signification.
II
nine or iiIZEAJii. 25
FOURTH SECX EOI$j,
Treats of the Ark of Noah, of the eight persons saved by
that Patriarch, of the seven wonders of the *orld and 6f the
three elect of God. These three elect are:
1. Cyrus, King of Persia, for having liberated the Jews.
2. Bezeleel (Reb. Belsalel, in umbra Dei), son of Tin and
Mary, sister of Moses; he was one of the builders of the
Tabernacle and full of the spirit of God. (Exod. xxxi. 210.)
S Mahansul, son of a prophet and mentioned by Isaiah.
Maher Schalal Chaseh Baa, (Praedam acceleians spolium fes-
tinans), the name of a son, real or supposed, of Isaiah. (See
Isaiah viii. 3)
The two living elect are Enoch and Elijah. Enoch (Reb.
Chanok), to preserve the principles of the sciences, engraved
them, like Hermes, on two columns, one of stone, the other of
brick. Elijah (Heb. Relish,) was borne to heaven in a chariot
of fire.
Three major dvents ought to fix the attention of the Rose
Croix, the creation of the world (generation), the deluge of
Noah (destruction), and the red&mption of the human race (re-
generation). This triple consideratioii ought to be present to
the mind of every Freemason, as the Royal Art has only, like
the ancient mysteries, one samthe lmowledge of nature, how
all is born, is destroyed, is regenerated.
FIFTH SECTION.
In this are commemorated the two mountains of salvation,
Mormah and Calvary; On the first were made three celebrated
sacrifices, that of Abraham, that of David for the plague, and
that of Solomon at the dedication of the Temple
We all know the great merit the second mountain possesses
in the eyes of Chnstians
The greatest honour the Jewish Masons could have received
was the presence of the Schebinah (Majestas eeu praestantia
Dei, that is to say, the Holy Spirit) which descended twicefrom
heaven, once during the anointment of the Tabernacle, the
other time at the dedication of the Temple. It then fixed
itself upon the ark of propitiation, between the wings of the
cherubim, where it delivered oracles for 14 years, when it dis.
appeared through the infidelity of the Jews.
SIX TH SECTION.
This contains a moral allegory on Masonic tools. Three
Virtues were required of the Mason for admission into the
Middle Chamber,Fidelity, Silence end Hospitality. They
found in this chamber the Mosaic pavement, image of the Law
given to Moses on Mount Sinai, the flaming Star, emblem of
the majesty of God on this mountain, and the indented tassels
expressing the ornaments of a virtuous life.
2 ? RiTE OF IdIZitAZiht
BITE OF iSIEBAiR.
There is another Middle Chamber in which Masons ought to
desire a seat: it is the Angelic body of the Temple of Jesus
Christ, into which it as only possible to be admitted by Faith,
Hope and Chanty. We there find the Tracing:board on the
Mosaic pavement (the Path of Safety wntten an the Law), the
Corner Stone and the Flaming star, that as to say Jesus Chmat,
the King of Jericho, the Lily of the Valley, the Grand Architect
of the Church in all his majesty; then the Broached Thurnal
or pointed Chisel is on the laced Houppe. This chisel is the
emblem of divine grace which is insinuated into our hearts
like the chisel into the stone.
SEVENTH SECTION.
It spealus of the civil virtues that are exacted of the Rose
Croix. He ought to live with humility, content with his lot,
walking in the path of the Lord and conforming with this
sublime precept: Alteri no feceris quod taha fiem non vie He
ought, besides, to be armed with the Sword of Justice, with the
Buckler of Eguity and with the Helmet of Safety, to engage
with the enemies of God, his country and his lung.
