Excerpt from Codex Vaticanus No. 3773 (Codex Vaticanus B): An Old Mexican Pictorial Manuscript in the Vatican Library; First Half; Text of the Obverse Side Most of the sections in this book are, however, new. Thus the very first, where the duty presented itself of describing and explaining the 2 x 52 little figures which accompany the Tonalamatl disposed in columns of five members. For here there was no prospect of arriving at a clear issue save by the inductive method, by careful comparisons of the pictures given in the different manuscripts. The subsequent sections will be found more pleasant reading. For I really think I have found the right solution for the majority of the sections. And if on the whole much still remains hypothetical, if my fellow-experts will doubtless judge differently in many points, and to my successors room he even left for many improvements. I still hope with the present commentary to have provided a foundation for further developments. And I believe I have thereby done all in my power to make more generally intelligible the weighty sources of knowledge which Your Excellency has with such great munificence placed at the disposal of the whole learned world.
