Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Constitutions of the Free-Masons was a constitution written for the Premier Grand Lodge of England, to standardize the rituals and practices of Freemasonry among lodges of London and Westminster operating under that Grand Lodge. Obviously, it was not meant to apply to other lodges in other parts of England, Scotland and Ireland. The constitution laid the foundation of the legend of Hiram Abiff, King Solomon's Master Builder, along with the pyramid style organizational model of Freemasonry. The first and second edition were written by Rev. James Anderson in 1723 and 1738.Anderson's Constitutions were based on the Old Masonic Manuscripts (also called "Gothic Constitutions") and on the General Regulations which had been compiled first by George Payne in 1720. The full title of the 1723 edition was The Constitutions of the Free-Masons, Containing the History, Charges, Regulations, &c. of that most Ancient and Right Worshipful Fraternity, For the Use of the Lodges.When in 1738, the Grand Lodge changed its name from Grand Lodge of London and Westminster into the Grand Lodge of England, the Constitution was rewritten by Anderson. The title of the second, rewritten, edition of 1738 was The New Book of Constitutions of the Antient and Honourable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons, Containing Their History, Charges, Regulations, &c. Collected and Digested By Order of the Grand Lodge from their old Records, faithful Traditions and Lodge-Books, For the Use of the Lodges.The 1723 edition of the Constitutions was edited and reprinted by Benjamin Franklin in Philadelphia in 1734, becoming the first Masonic book printed in America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Constitutions of the Free-Masons: Containing the History, Charges and Regulations of That Most Ancient and Right Worshipful Fraternity, for the Use of the Lodges The year l723 forms an important epoch in the history of the Order, and among the Masonic writers of that period there are few more deserving of notice than the author of the "Constitutions of Freemasonry." The Masonic world have already dignified him with the reputation of a classic, and enrolled his name among that select number whose works belong alike to every nation, and are destined to float down the stream of time, untouched by the flood of oblivion, which soon overtakes the mass of authors, as it does the mass of other men. "Incredibili industriœ - diligentia singulari," said the ancients in their descriptions of individuals eminent for merit; and, indeed, it must be owned that, in his laborious compilations, "extracted from the ancient records of lodges beyond sea" - a work characterized by industry and the love of truth - no writer is more eminently entitled to the encomium than James Anderson. His varied acquirements, deep research, wonderful industry, great experience and boundless resources of knowledge, both practical and theoretical, have done much to advance the cause of Masonry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition unites the Masonic Constitution together with other regulations, plus a selection of Freemason songs traditionally sung in the Lodges. A fascinating account of the Freemason traditions, and a crucial source document for founders of the Masonic Lodges, this book offers insight into both the historic and social qualities of Freemasonry. We discover how the organization's hierarchy is arranged, how it advances principles such as mutual aid between Masons times of crisis or hardship, and how relevant subjects of Art and Architecture are ripe for discussion. Rules of rank, conduct, congregation and ceremony are sequentially laid out in the book's second portion: the General Regulations. We learn how one Lodge is to associate with another, how periodic communications are to be issued to Masons, how a Lodge's finances are to be organized, and how the Wardens oversee the group's affairs. Rules protecting against the abuse of the society, and rules of succession in the event of a Grand-Master's death or incapacity, are also given. The concluding portion of this book contains a selection of songs. These are intended to be sung by Freemasons in celebration; generally, they praise aspects of architecture and design employing sound geometry, while the singers congratulate one another and celebrate the convivial aspects of fraternity. First composed in the 1720s, we see in this book an authentic and detailed account of Freemasonry in its early years.
