On the opposite side of this paper is printed : — "RAPPORT PAHTICULIEB . " A large blank is then left , at the bottom of which are the following words : —

The Second Degree I have seen in two forms . If there is sufficient time , it is given in full , when it is a very pretty ceremony , introducing much graceful symbolism . In such a case , considerable alterations are made in the adornment of the room , with especial regard to those arts and sciences more particularly inculcated in this degree . The degree thus given is much fuller than the ceremony
which is practised in England , and occupies rather more than two hours . At all events , it did so when I saw it ; but perhaps that might have been occasioned by the number of the candidates who were admitted into it . Seven were passed to the Second Degree that evening , which was dedicated expressly to that object . Many portions of the ceremony were exceedingly striking , and several very
effective tableaux were presented . As in the former degree , the candidates were closely questioned , and some very curious answers resulted . Indeed , the responses of one individual were quite startling . This degree in its compressed form is short and rather uninteresting , as all the imagery is cut off , and only the bare facts given . I may here observe , that in each degree , the candidate is asked at its close
whether he has any objection to repeat the O . B . This is never refused , and the last portion of the ceremony consists in the repetition of the O . B . I have already mentioned that the usual time that must elapse the didat
between each degree is one year . 11 , however , can e nas any particular wish to take the degree before the prescribed time , he addresses a form of petition to the Supreme Council , of which I give ^ i copy . von . i . 2 0
