The Great Pyramid And Freemasonry.
THE GREAT PYRAMID AND FREEMASONRY .
( Continued from page 154 . )
Within the King ' s Chamber is found the onl y piece of furniture ( if such it may be called ) that the building contains . It is known as the " Coffer , " and may be regarded as an infallible standard of weight and capacity . Its interior capacity is exactly that of the Ark of the Covenant ( being 71 , 250 Pyramid inches ) and is four times that of the
"British quarter j" it is also equal to the " Hebrew laver , " and the " old Saxon chaldron . " Its interior capacity is precisely double that of its interior , to the smallest fraction ; while the length of its sides is to its height as tbe circumference of a circle is to its diameter , thereby " squaring the circle . " The weight of the " Coffer " is one
ton , or twenty-five million Pyramid grains . THE DIAMETER AND THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE EARTH are unmistakably monumentalised in the Great Pyramid . For example : — if we take a band , the width of the base breadth of the Great Pyramid and encircle the earth , we shall find it wil ! contain ono hundred
thousand million square feet . Now the equatorial diameters ( as given by Colonel Clarke ) are five hundred and one million five hundred and seventy-seven thousand Pyramid inches , and five hundred and one million seven hundred and thirty thousand Pyramid inches . From these two diameters we are able to compute the equatorial
circumference by multip lying them by 3 * 14159 . & c , and reducing the prod acfc to Pyramid feet by dividing by 12 . If we then multi ply by Pyramid base breadth , in Pyramid feet , viz ., ? i- ° = 760 * 921 , it will be found that the results tally very closely with the measurements we have
given above the smaller equatorial diameter being ninety-nine thonsand nine hundred and nineteen million feet , and tbe layer diameter ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and forty-nine million feet ; both of these , however , require a small addition , at present not exactl y known to science , for the amount of matter above the sea level .
