> Eventually we turned to the last items in the Oculist trove: nine copies of a four-page document written in a mixture of old German, Latin, and the Copiale’s coded script. The message was more or less identical in every set.

- Avshalom 14y agoThat sentence says the nine copies (sets) were more or less identical not that the german latin and copiale were translations of each other.
