    This is a very valuable paper that streamlines -- and adds a new result to -- the bewildering number of results about configurations of points and lines related to Pascal's hexagrammum mysticum considered by \textit{G. Veronese} [R. Acc. d. Linc. (3) I., 141--142 (1877; JFM 10.0390.01)] under the name of multimysticum, who continued the work of \textit{T. P. Kirkman} [``On the complete hexagon inscribed in a conic section'', The Cambridge and Dublin Math. J. 5, 185--200 (1850)].
