"There must exist a book which is the cipher and perfect compendium of all the rest... How
to locate the secret hexagon which harbored it? Someone proposed a regressive approach:
in order to locate book A, first consult book B which will indicate the location of A; in order
to locate book B, first consult book C, and so on ad infinitum.... I pray the unknown gods
that some man —even if only one man, and though it have been thousands of years ago!—
may have examined and read it."
[Debe existir un libro que sea la cifra y el compendio perfecto de todos los demás... ¿Cómo
localizar el venerado hexágono secreto que lo hospedaba? Alguien propuso un método regresivo:
para localizar el libro A, consultar previamente un libro B que indique el sitio de A; para localizar
el libro B, consultar previamente un libro C, y así hasta lo infinito… ruego a los dioses ignorados
que un hombre —¡uno solo, aunque sea, hace miles de años!— lo haya examinado y leído.]
