A new model for the rebuilding Masonry on a stronger basis than the former : with a sound constitution, and a curious catechism drawn from Rules both intelligible and insturctive; in three degrees: teaching the whole world to be Masons, without the Imputation of being either Fools or Knaves. To which is added, several diverting songs by Celebrated Masons Of the Old Order, and Some new ones propos'd as Subjects for a certain Orator, with the Downfall of the Old Structure, a melancholy Poem addressed to Melfomene. By Peter Farmer Esq; Dedicated t Mr. Orator Henley.
