M. E. — I now invest you with this Apron as the Badge

of High Priesthood, and clothe you with this white
garment, which is symholical of the innocence, purity,
and righteousness of our Lord This Cross, with heams
extending equally to the four points of the Compass,
represents the Christian Faith embracing the whole world.
I also present to you this pastoral Staff, which, if wisely
used, will enable you like your great predecessor Eusebius,
to maintain order in the West, in response to the Most
Puissant Sovereign in the East. And now with the Grip

of Eusebius. I place you in the chair of Viceroy of

the • Conclave, trusting that our Great High Priest

will grant you grace to perform your duties aright. I now
call upon the Viceroys present to salute the new Viceroy
with twenty-four — taking the time from me. I now
declare this College of Priest Masons and Viceroys of the
Order closed.
