Like
the
Louvre
s
Grand
Gallery
,
it
had
a
lone
point
of
entry
the
door
through
which
they
had
just
passed
easy
to
find
your
way
in
,
but
impossible
to
find
your
way
out
.
A
literal
tourist
trap
,
one
of
Langdon
s
befuddled
colleagues
had
called
it
.
Keeping
architectural
tradition
,
the
abbey
was
laid
out
in
the
shape
of
a
giant
crucifix
.
Unlike
most
churches
,
however
,
it
had
its
entrance
on
the
side
,
rather
than
the
standard
rear
of
the
church
via
the
narthex
at
the
bottom
of
the
nave
.
Moreover
,
the
abbey
had
a
series
of
sprawling
cloisters
attached
.
One
false
step
through
the
wrong
archway
,
and
a
visitor
was
lost
in
a
labyrinth
of
outdoor
passageways
surrounded
by
high
walls
.
«
Docents
wear
crimson
robes
,
»
Langdon
said
,
approaching
the
center
of
the
church
.
Peering
obliquely
across
the
towering
gilded
altar
to
the
far
end
of
the
south
transept
,
Langdon
saw
several
people
crawling
on
their
hands
and
knees
.
This
prostrate
pilgrimage
was
a
common
occurrence
in
Poets
Corner
,
although
it
was
far
less
holy
than
it
appeared
.
Tourists
doing
grave
rubbings
.
«
I
don
t
see
any
docents
,
»
Sophie
said
.
«
Maybe
we
can
find
the
tomb
on
our
own
?

Without
a
word
,
Langdon
led
her
another
few
steps
to
the
center
of
the
abbey
and
pointed
to
the
right
.
Sophie
drew
a
startled
breath
as
she
looked
down
the
length
of
the
abbey
s
nave
,
the
full
magnitude
of
the
building
now
visible
.
«
Aah
,
»
she
said
.
«
Let
s
find
a
docent
.
»
At
that
moment
,
a
hundred
yards
down
the
nave
,
out
of
sight
behind
the
choir
screen
,
the
stately
tomb
of
Sir
Isaac
Newton
had
a
lone
visitor
.
The
Teacher
had
been
scrutinizing
the
monument
for
ten
minutes
now
.

Newton
s
tomb
consisted
of
a
massive
black
-
marble
sarcophagus
on
which
reclined
the
sculpted
form
of
Sir
Isaac
Newton
,
wearing
classical
costume
,
and
leaning
proudly
against
a
stack
of
his
own
books
Divinity
,
Chronology
,
Opticks
,
and
Philosophiae
Naturalis
Principia
Mathematica
.
At
Newton
s
feet
stood
two
winged
boys
holding
a
scroll
.
Behind
Newton
s
recumbent
body
rosean
austere
pyramid
.
Although
the
pyramid
itself
seemed
an
oddity
,
it
was
the
giant
shape
mounted
halfway
up
the
pyramid
that
most
intrigued
the
Teacher
.
An
orb
.
The
Teacher
pondered
Saunière
s
beguiling
riddle
.
You
seek
the
orb
that
ought
be
on
his
tomb
.
The
massive
orb
protruding
from
the
face
of
the
pyramid
was
carved
in
basso
-
relievo
and
depicted
allkinds
of
heavenly
bodies
constellations
,
signs
of
the
zodiac
,
comets
,
stars
,
and
planets
.
Above
it
,
the
image
of
the
Goddess
of
Astronomy
beneath
a
field
of
stars
.
