To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Masonic significance of the five-pointed star or pentalpha needs no explanation.
Beneath the device is the Sanscrit motto, "Om mani padme hum," a solemn invocation familiar to the students of Buddhism, said to sig- nify "Oh, the jewel in the lotus, Om,'* the last word being a name for their chief deity. Below is the owner's name in script.
THEODORE SUTTON PARVIN AND THE IOWA MASONIC LIBRARY Theodore Sutton Parvin, LL. D., born, January 15, 1817, was the old- est of thirteen children born to... Jo- siah and Lydia Harris Parvin, in Cedarville, New Jersey. At an ear- ly age he met with an accident which he relates as follows: — "Workmen were repairing a dam across a creek near the home of my jchildhood, when, one day, rather than be 'dared' by the little fellows of my own age (some 6 or 7 years), I jumped from the bank into the sand below. That jump crippled me for life, and thus ended the hope of making a navigator of me (as was my father's intention, he being a sea captain). Owing to my lame- ness, I could not join the boys in their sports; hence I was thrown much into the society of my mother, a woman possessed in a remarkable degree of all the loveliness of Chris- tian virtues; to her I owe, under God, all the good I have been able to accomplish, aided in later years by a wife like unto her; and I was destined to plod among the books, for which I soon developed a sur- prising taste." Brother Parvin graduated from Woodward College, Cincinnati, in 1837.
