equest, and his answer returned.<br />

Q. What answer did he return?<br />

A. Let him enter, and be received in due form.<br />

Q. How were you received?<br />

A. On both points <strong>of</strong> the compasses, extending<br />

from my naked left to my right breast, which was<br />

to teach me that, as the most vital parts <strong>of</strong> man<br />

are contained within the breast, so the most<br />

excellent tenets <strong>of</strong> our institution are contained<br />

between the points <strong>of</strong> the compasses, which are,<br />

friendship, morality, and brotherly love.<br />

Q. How were you then disposed <strong>of</strong>?<br />

A. I was conducted three times around the Lodge,<br />

to the Junior Warden in the south, where the<br />

same questions were asked, and like answers<br />

returned as at the door.<br />

Q. How did the Junior Warden dispose <strong>of</strong> you?<br />

A. He directed me to the Senior Warden in the<br />

west, and he to the Worshipful Master in the east,<br />

where the same questions were asked, and like<br />

answers returned as before.<br />

Q. How did the Worshipful Master dispose <strong>of</strong><br />

you?<br />

A. He ordered me to be returned to the Senior<br />

Warden in the west, who taught me to approach<br />

the east by three upright regular steps, my feet<br />

forming the angle <strong>of</strong> a perfect square, my body<br />

erect at the altar, before the Worshipful Master in<br />

the east.
