H.P. Blavatsky: "the sacred pledge of secrecy"

I copy below from H.P. Blavatsky's 1888 "Pledge Folder", the 
following part of the pledge of the E.S.T.S.:

"I pledge myself to preserve inviolable secrecy as regards . . . all 
confidential documents."

See the full pledge of 1888 at:

http://blavatskyarchives.com/images/espage3.jpg

And under the Rules of the section, in part 7, notice the wording 
about maintaining:

"The Secrecy of the documents of the Section...."

"...unless absolved from such secrecy by the Head of the Section."

See complete set of rules at:

Read the whole pledge folder sent by HPB to TS members who wanted to 
join the Esoteric Section of the Theosophical Society at:
