Excerpt from The Book of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry: Containing Instructions in All the Degrees From the Third to the Thirty-Third, and Last Degree of the Rite
The Collator, in presenting the result of his labors to the public, by no means would claim an approach to perfection; it will doubtless be conceded that in this country, so far as the various degrees have been fully worked, that while replete with beauty, moral and ia structive teachings, their rendering is still susceptible of elaboration and improvement.
The effort of the Collator has been, in this work, to maintain all the original landmarks of the Rite in their pristine purity, and. At the same time to embellish, so far as might be proper, with kindred surroundings, many portions of the work where the original ritual might seem defective.
