You will find them in the Legenda... (quote from the 26th degree, AASR, SMJ). This book contains ALL of the �������Legenda������� and �������Readings������� written for members of the Scottish Rite to supplement the ritualistic instruction. This anthology is similar, in some respects, to Pike's Lectures on Masonic Symbolism, but was considered REQUIRED READING by Pike himself.
