That the objeSi of this Fraternity of learned men, known superficially to history as the Rosicrucians, or the Brethren of the Rose and Cross, was the advancement of learning, the bettering of mens bread and wine, and the universal reformation of the whole wide world.3. That the principal method by which the achievement of this end was attempted, was the preparation and publication of instructive and elevating literature.4. That hooks published under the auspices of the Fraternity were secretly hall-marked, and are to be identified by peculiar and distinctive emblems, which may he found concealed in the form of paper-marks, printers ornaments, and wood-cuts.5.
