What is Freemasonry? The definition in the English Lectures is most often quoted, which says that "Freemasonry is a peculiar system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols.'' But a more comprehensive and exact definition is, that it is a science which is engaged in the search after Divine Truth, and which employs symbolism as its method of instruction." Albert G. Mackey, Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, 1873
