|   see `nth-value' if you only want the second value.

[Michael Wein]

|   This is possible, however nth-value is intended as a universal accessor
|   function for sequences and not for retrieving multiple values.

reading the fine manual is highly recommended.

you're confusing `nth' and `nth-value'.
