HI Monica,
That is so true about content. Some of the Fulcanelli books and a few I
still have here would never be recorded by NLS. In time, since they are
larger books and I am finding really need a clean copy, I'll be
submitting... A Course IN miracles, the book, study book and teachers book.
The Keys of Enoch. A book that is some what hard to find in print regardless
in an accessible form.

You, who are thirsty, come hither: if, by chance, the fountain
fails,
The goddess has, by degrees, prepared the everlasting waters.
translation by fulcanelli of an inscription on the
statue of maitre plerre, which stood on the parvis of
Notre-Dame-de-Paris until its removal in 1748
