Transcription

Those distinctly Masonic teachings of the liberal arts and sciences are not made mention of in any context within the [Latter-day Saint] Endowment. The only tools of our craft that make an appearance in the Endowment, is that of the square and compass. However, they are never presented in a similar orientation or fashion and the brief lecture appertaining to them contains only a partial reference (that of one or two sentences) to those particular teachings contained in Masonry.
