The journal Ritual, Secrecy, and Civil Society Vol. 5, No. 2 / Vol. 6, No. 1 • Fall 2017 / Spring 2018 (can be found online) has a text translated from the Kloss collection Scottish Master and Knight of St. Andrew of the Scottish Lodge l’Union in Berlin 7th of October 1747 (note the year). The original was written in France. This may well be the oldest ritual text of a ‘higher degree’ and the text seems to be similar to rituals that were worked in the London area in the 1730’s. Above you can see a tracing board from the text. It has several images that later appear in other ‘high degrees’. One that I had not seen before is the “sanctuaire” with a very specific form.
Feddersen reproduces the same tracing board, but from Denmark. He calls it the tracing board of the first Scottish lodge in Denmark “Dahl”, from 1747.
Les Plus Secret Mysteres (1820) also speaks of a sanctuary:
The Sanctuary represents our hearts holding the mysteries of the Law.
