Knight of the East and West
A crowned, bearded figure holds a staff among several lights inside a circular lettered border. Small celestial signs and a triangular form fill the surrounding field. The exact source page heads Chapter XVII, Knight of the East and West, in Albert Pike’s Morals and Dogma. The illustration introduces that degree’s philosophical discussion rather than identifying a historical king.
