Intro

O full-orb'd moon, did but thy rays

Their last upon mine anguish gaze!

Beside this desk, at dead of night,

Oft have I watched to hail thy light:

Then, pensive friend! o'er book and scroll,

With soothing power, thy radiance stole!

In thy dear light, ah, might I climb,

Freely, some mountain height sublime,

Round mountain caves with spirits ride,

In thy mild haze o'er meadows glide,

And, purged from knowledge-fumes, renew

My spirit, in thy healing dew!

Goethe: Faust I.

Kryptos

This is something I've been working on.  Truly, I haven't been working on it enough, but I'm collecting bits of information that do not require assumptions.  "Facts" I suppose, though I'm always wary of "facts" because "facts" != truth.  We know that the blue marked NVPVTT is plaintext BERLIN (at some point, at least, and in some way, at least) and we know this from Sanborn himself.  I also venture that the R in the ciphertext at the end may represent punctuation, as it has done in the previous ciphertext blocs.  Any ideas or approaches are more than welcome.
