What questions were then asked you?

• A. If it was of my own free will and accord I made the request, if I was duly and truly prepared, worthy and well qualified, and of lawful age and properly vouched for. All of which being answered in the affirmative, I was asked by what further right I expected to gain admission.
• B. Whether you could name the two principal officers.
• C. Whether you had ever been in a lodge before.
• D. Whether you would pledge alligance to the Worshipful Master.

Answer: (D)

This question tests what a candidate is asked at a pivotal moment in the Entered Apprentice initiation: a public commitment to the lodge’s leadership. The key idea is the pledge of allegiance to the Worshipful Master, which signals the candidate’s acceptance of the Master’s authority and a willingness to follow the rules, rituals, and obligations of the lodge. This moment underscores the lodge’s hierarchical structure and the duty to support the Master and the officers as part of becoming a Mason. The other options touch on various N/A details—preparations, knowledge of the officers, or prior lodge experience—but they aren’t the specific question posed at that point in the ritual.
