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
eniences, 7 angelsbefore the throne of the lamb, S measures of
time, borders of architecture, 6 points of companionship, Storms

THIRD SECTION
The Son of Man is on this symbohised by the corner stone
(Perpend-aeter), 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 moral jewels upon. Three great points
distinguish itFraternal Love, Succour, Truth
Ito name is
Heleanain, or sometimes El Chanan These two words signify
Grace of God, and not, as we are told in the manuals, God is
wilts us; Emanuel has the letter signification

RITE or MIERAISI.
25
FOURTH SECTION.
Treats of the Ark of Noah, of the eight persons saved by
that Patriarch, of the seven wonders of the *orld and of the
three elect of God. These three elect are:
1. Cyrus, King of Persia, for having liberated the Jews
2. Bezelool (Reb. Betealel, in umbra Dei), son of liri and
Mary, sister of Moses; he was one of the builders of the
Tabernacle and full of the spirit of God (Exod. xxxi. 210)
3. Mahareul, eon of a prophet and mentioned by Isaiah.
Maher Schalal Chaseb Baa, (Praedam accelerans spohium feetinans), the name of a son, real or supposed, of Isaiah. (See
Isaiah vita. 3.)
The two hiving elect are Enoch and Eli
1ah. Enoch (Bob.
Chanok), to preserve the principles of the sciences, engraved
them, bloc Hermes, on two columns, one of atone, the other of
brick. Elijah (Heb. 1-lelfab,) was borne to heaven in a chariot
of fire.
Three maior events ought to fix the attention of the Rose
Croix, the creataon of the world (generation), the deluge of
Noah (destruction), and the redemption of the human race (regeneration). This tasple consideration ought to be present to
the mind of every Freemason, as the Royal Art has only, like
the ancient mysteries, one acmthe knowledge of nature, bow
all is born, is destroyed, as regenerated.

FIFTH SECTION.
In this are commemorated the two mountains of salvation,
Moriab and Calvary; on the first were made three celebrated
sacrifices, that of Abi sham, that of David for the plague, and
that of Solomon at the dedication of the Temple
We all know the giest merit the second mountain possesses
in the eyes of Christians
The greatest honour the Jewish Mosons could have received
was the presence of the Schelonab (Malestas eon pranotantia
Dci, that is to say, the Holy Spirit) which descended twice from
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, whore it delivered oracles for 14 years, when it disappeared through the infidelity of the Jews.
SIXTH SECTION.
This contains a moral allegory on Masonic tools. Three
Virtues were required of the Mason for admission into the
Middle ChamberFidelity, Silence end Hospitality
They
foond in this chamber the Mosaic pavement, image of the Law
given to Moses on Mount Sinai, the flaming Star, emblem of
the niajesty of God on this mountain, and the indented tassels
expressing the ornaments of a virtuous life.
