The Evening and the Morning Star, January 1833: "through the aid of a pair of Interpreters, or spectacles-(known, perhaps, in ancient days as Teraphim, or Urim and Thummim)"

The book of Mormon, as a revelation from God, possesses some advantage over the old scripture: it has not been tinctured by the wisdom of man, with here and there an Italic word to supply deficiencies.-It was translated by the gift and power of God, by an unlearned man, through the aid of a pair of Interpreters, or spectacles-(known, perhaps, in ancient days as Teraphim, or Urim and Thummim)
—The Evening and The Morning Star 1:57 .

• Instrument: "pair of Interpreters," "spectacles."
• Name: "perhaps" known as Teraphim or Urim and Thummim.
