    [Part I was reviewed in Zbl 0786.53032.] In Part I, the author studied a family of compact irreducible symmetric spaces with some property which all projective spaces have in common. These spaces are called ``projective spaces in a wider sense''. The family contains two conspicuous kinds of spaces: Grassmann manifolds \(G(r,nr)\) and the symmetric space \(E\text{III}\). In these spaces, the intersection number of two lines in the general position is one. In this paper, the author studies the projective transformations of \(E\text{III}\) and gives an embedding map of \(E\text{III}\) into \(E_6\).
