We have learned things which are not in the scripts. We have solved secrets of which the Scholars have no knowledge. WE HAVE LEARNED THINGS WHICH ARE NOT IN THE SCRIPTS WE HAVE SOLVED SECRETS OF WHICH THE SCHOLARS HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE
, and we have brought them to this place. We have stolen glass vials and powders and acids from the Home of the Scholars. Now we sit in the tunnel for three hours each night and we study. We melt strange metals, and we mix acids, and we cut open the bodies of the animals which we find in the City Cesspool. We have built an oven of the bricks we gathered in the streets. We burn the wood we find in the ravine. The fire flickers in the oven and blue shadows dance upon the walls, and there is no sound of men to disturb us. We have stolen manuscripts. This is a great offense. Manuscripts are precious, for our brothers in the Home of the Clerks spend one year to copy one single script in their clear handwriting. Manuscripts are rare and they are kept in the Home of the Scholars. So we sit under the earth and we read the stolen scripts. Two years have passed since we found this place. And in these two years we have learned more than we had learned in the ten years of the Home of the Students. NIVES AND PAPER AND WE HAVE BROUGHT THEM TO THIS PLACE WE HAVE STOLEN GLASS VIALS AND POWDERS AND ACIDS FROM THE HOME OF THE SCHOLARS NOW WE SIT IN THE TUNNEL FOR THREE HOURS EACH NIGHT AND WE STUDY WE MELT STRANGE METALS AND WE MIX ACIDS AND WE CUT OPEN THE BODIES OF THE ANIMALS WHICH WE FIND IN THE CITY CESSPOOL WE HAVE BUILT AN OVEN OF THE BRICKS WE GATHERED IN THE STREETS WE BURN THE WOOD WE FIND IN THE RAVINE THE FIRE FLICKERS IN THE OVEN AND THE BLUE SHADOWS DANCE UPON THE WALLS AND THERE IS NO SOUND OF MEN TO DISTURB US WE HAVE STOLEN MANUSCRIPTS THIS IS A GREAT OFFENCE MANUSCRIPTS ARE PRECIOUS FOR OUR BROTHERS IN THE HOME OF THE CLERKS SPEND ONE YEAR TO COPY ONE SINGLE SCRIPT IN THEIR CLEAR HANDWRITING MANUSCRIPTS ARE RARE AND THEY ARE KEPT IN THE HOME OF THE SCHOLARS SO WE SIT UNDER THE EARTH AND WE READ THE STOLEN SCRIPTS TWO YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE WE FOUND THIS PLACE AND IN THESE TWO YEARS WE HAVE LEARNED MORE THAN WE HAD LEARNED IN THE TEN YEARS AT THE HOME OF THE STUDENTS
