Provide the passages from the ahimon rezon that discuss the role of Noah in the degrees and the transition to the hiramic drama
In Laurence Dermott's Ahiman Rezon, the First of the Old Charges states that a Mason is bound by his tenure to observe the moral law as a "true Noachida" 1. It charges Masons to adhere to the general religion in which all men agree, requiring only that they hold to the "three great articles of Noah" sufficient to preserve the cement of the lodge 1.
Dermott ridicules the Noah story when treated as literal history, though he retains its symbolic application, particularly where the ritual connected the Great Pillars with the pillars described in older manuscript traditions 1.
The Ahiman Rezon itself does not detail a transition from a Noachic system to the Hiramic drama. That explicit division between "Noachites" (descendants of Noah) and "Hiramites" (descendants of Hiram) is found in higher-degree systems such as the Scottish Rite 1. Likewise, the alternative legend in which lost secrets are discovered following the death of Noah rather than Hiram belongs to the Graham Manuscript rather than Dermott's work 1.
The supplied passages do not contain any account within the Ahiman Rezon discussing a narrative or degree transition from Noah to the Hiramic drama.
