At that time a series of communications appeared even in the “Reichsanzeiger” on a society whose task it was to prepare the Stone of the Wise; among these communications there is also one which can only be understood by those who know what it is about. It states: “Yes, the Stone of the Wise exists; it is known to almost everyone; indeed, most people have even held it in their hand; it is not at all difficult to find it,—but most people do not know this!”","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"XIV.

Jahrhunderts, als auf einem unrechten Wege, durch eine Art Verrat, gewisse Geheimnisse der Rosenkreuzerei in die Öffentlichkeit gekommen sind. Damals wurde Verschiedenes darüber gedruckt; man konnte daraus entnehmen, daß die Betreffenden etwas haben läuten hören, aber es nicht verstanden haben. Doch haben sie wenigstens richtige Worte gehört, sozusagen aufgeschnappt, auch über «den Stein der Weisen». Damals erschien sogar in dem damaligen «Reichs-Anzeiger» eine Reihe von Mitteilungen über eine Gesellschaft, die sich die «Bereitung des Steins der Weisen» zur Aufgabe gemacht hatte; und unter diesen Mitteilungen findet sich auch eine, die nur ein solcher verstehen konnte, der da wußte, worum es sich handelt.
