Description
The Regius Poem Or Halliwell Manuscript by James Halliwell is a collection of rhyming couplets that form the earliest known version of the Old Charges of Masonry. Discovered in 1838, this manuscript is now considered to be from the late 14th century, although its exact origins are unclear. The Regius Poem plays a significant role in the Legend of York, which remains an important part of Masonic tradition today. It outlines the rules for Masons' behavior towards each other and the civil magistrate, as well as providing insight into the history and philosophy of the order. This manuscript is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Freemasonry. For those seeking to understand the roots of their fraternity, The Regius Poem Or Halliwell Manuscript offers a unique glimpse into the past.
