We learn that before the Almighty had finished His work, lie was in some douhl ahotlt crew 1 inir Kvfi Tl.O rruotinn ??/> ry living and creeping tiling had been accompliehed, and the Almighty had made Adam (who wag the fir?t Ma?on) and created for him the firwt lodge in the world, and called it Paradige No 1.

Adam being very much fatigued with the labor* of lita fir*t task, fell into n deep gleep, and when be awoke he found Rve in the lodge with him. Adam, being Senior Warden, placed Eva ?g the pillar _r l. ui 111 infl mourn, mm wey received t*?eir instructions from the Grand Master in the Kant, which, when finished. she im mediately called the craft from labor to refreshment.
