Turns out I had some idea about where to look: my hard disk.
I have GCL for Linux and CLisp for DOS and Linux. They both
come with lisp sources for system functions and macros.
For reference:
GCL: ftp://ftp.cli.com/pub/gcl
ftp://ftp.ma.utexas.edu/pub/gcl
CLisp: ftp://ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de/pub/lisp/clisp.
Thanks to all who responded anyway.

You might also read, if you have not already, as a point of historical
interest, if nothing else, John McCarthy's book "Lisp 1.5 Programmer's
Manual" (circa 1965) for the original ideas etc. from God himself. Page 70
is a good spot to start.
Regards.

I don't suppose anyone's ever re-printed? I'd like to get a copy.

I believe it's still in print, from MIT Press. My 10-year-old copy has the
ISBN 0-262-13011-4. They are, at the very least, a good place to start.

as the corresponding word in English, or Latin, or Hebrew, or
what not.
