What is the 32 degree in Scottish rite ?

Sublime Prince of the Royal Secret is the thirty-second degree 1. It originated in 1758 as the twenty-fifth and ultimate degree of the Rite of Perfection, established by the Council of Emperors of the East and West 1. Stephen Morin introduced this twenty-five degree system to the Western Continent under a 1761 patent 1. When the system was expanded to thirty-three degrees at Charleston in 1801, the grade was re-positioned as the thirty-second 1.

Members of the degree meet in a body designated a Consistory 1. In the Southern Jurisdiction of the United States, a Consistory confers the thirty-first and thirty-second degrees, whereas in the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, it confers the nineteenth through thirty-second degrees 1. Elective officers in a Southern Jurisdiction Consistory include a Commander-in-Chief, Seneschal, Preceptor, Chancellor, Minister of State, Almoner, Registrar, and Treasurer; the Northern Jurisdiction replaces the second and third officers with Lieutenant-Commanders 1.

The regalia of a Sublime Prince includes a black collar edged with white, a gold Teutonic cross jewel, and a white apron edged in black 1. The flap of the apron displays six embroidered flags, an All-Seeing Eye, and an uncrowned double-headed eagle 1. The central element of the degree's symbolism is its tracing-board, technically termed the Camp, which retained its form across the transition from the twenty-fifth to the thirty-second degree and carries the emblem of the "Royal Secret" 1. The motto attached to the degree is Spes mea in Deo est ("My hope is in God") 1.
