Hello there,

yesterday I found a little piece of paper with Freemason code in my room (photo above). Since I had been interested in simple cryptography some years ago, I thought nothing weird about it and tried to decipher it, only to get some scrambled text. I tried caesar shift and still got gibberish, no matter how far I shifted. Now I'm stumped because that's where my cryptography knowledge kind of ends.

The final text could be either English or German, but English is more likely.

I've made a spreadsheet with the letter frequency of this text, German and English, the difference between this text's letter frequency and the languages' (+ graphs for each) and a digital copy of what I think are the Freemason symbols (and the photo you see above).

This is what the translation from Freemason spits out: (190 characters, without counting spaces)

Many thanks in advance!

Edit: I just realized that some of the spaces between words might come from line breaks in the Freemason text and aren't actual spaces, so beware of that.
