The Analytical Language of John Wilkins

A translation by Ruth L. C. Simms can be found in Jorge Luis Borges, 'Other inquisitions 1937-1952' (University of Texas Press, 1993) I have noticed that the 14th edition of Encyclopedia Britannica does not include the article on John Wilkins. Borges' Encyclopedia.
