The word is enfolded, as an illustration, in the sentence Manere te volo donec venero, as follows:—
Manere te volo donec venero.
| a a b a b | b a a b b | a a b b a | a a b a a |
| F. | U. | G. | E. |
A more ample example of the cipher is given on the page which is here reproduced from Mrs. Gallup’s book. The work in which the “interiour” letter is enfolded is the first Epistle of Cicero, and the cipher letter it contains is as follows:
All is lost. Mindarus is killed. The soldiers want food.
We can neither get hence nor stay longer here.
Cicero’s First Epistle.
