Description of the Lodge of the Council.

The lodge must represent a beautiful Council hall. The tapestry will be

red at the East and at the West; white at the South and green at the North. There will be

at the East a canopy placed on 3 columns; it will be of a light celestial blue;

there will be, in the middle, three crosses that will form a triangle, as the jewel

carries it. Between the two columns and in the middle, will be a red armchair for

seating the Commander; he will have before him a table covered with a

red cloth, on which there must be a register, a writing desk, a

Crucifix, and two candlesticks.

The Wardens will be seated at the West, on risers in

red, and the Grand Equerry, being Master of Ceremonies, to the right of the Commander

on a riser in red. The Knights who are at the South will be seated on

white risers and those of the North on green risers.

The Council will be lit by 16 lights besides those which are

on the table before the Commander. They will be on four plaques,

made in the shape of a cross, on each of which there will be 4 lights.

Those which will be at the East and at the West will be painted in red; that of the

South in white and that of the North in green.

the three letters D. L. V. above which signify God wills it!!
