«King David and King Solomon Led merry, merry lives, With many, many lady friends And many, many wives; But when old age crept over them, With many, many qualms, King Solomon wrote the Proverbs And King David wrote the Psalms»

«He was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and cunning to work all works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.»
«Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great? / And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: / Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.»
«For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.»
«FREEMASONS, n. An order with secret rites, grotesque ceremonies and fantastic costumes, which, originating in the reign of Charles II, among working artisans of London, has been joined successively by the dead of past centuries in unbroken retrogression until now it embraces all the generations of man on the hither side of Adam and is drumming up distinguished recruits among the pre-Creational inhabitants of Chaos and Formless Void. The order was founded at different times by Charlemagne, Julius Caesar, Cyrus, Solomon, Zoroaster, Confucious, Thothmes, and Buddha. Its emblems and symbols have been found in the Catacombs of Paris and Rome, on the stones of the Parthenon and the Chinese Great Wall, among the temples of Karnak and Palmyra and in the Egyptian Pyramids --always by a Freemason.»

«DOG, n. A kind of additional or subsidiary Deity designed to catch the overflow and surplus of the world's worship. This Divine Being in some of his smaller and silkier incarnations takes, in the affection of Woman, the place to which there is no human male aspirant. The Dog is a survival --an anachronism. He toils not, neither does he spin, yet Solomon in all his glory never lay upon a door-mat all day long, sun-soaked and fly-fed and fat, while his master worked for the means wherewith to purchase the idle wag of the Solomonic tail, seasoned with a look of tolerant recognition.»

«Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected.»
«Eleazar begat Phinehas, Phinehas begat Abishua, / And Abishua begat Bukki, and Bukki begat Uzzi, / And Uzzi begat Zerahiah, and Zerahiah begat Meraioth, / Meraioth begat Amariah, and Amariah begat Ahitub, / And Ahitub begat Zadok, and Zadok begat Ahimaaz, / And Ahimaaz begat Azariah, and Azariah begat Johanan, / And Johanan begat Azariah, (he it is that executed the priest's office in the temple that Solomon built in Jerusalem:) / And Azariah begat Amariah, and Amariah begat Ahitub, / And Ahitub begat Zadok, and Zadok begat Shallum, / And Shallum begat Hilkiah, and Hilkiah begat Azariah, / And Azariah begat Seraiah, and Seraiah begat Jehozadak, / And Jehozadak went into captivity, when the LORD carried away Judah and Jerusalem by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar.»
«In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.»
