The description for loscil seems very cryptic and far from complete:

/oscil is the basic unit for building a sampling synthesizer. Given a
sufficient set of recorded piano tones, for example, this unit can resample
them to simulate the missing tones. Locating the sound source nearest a
desired pitch can be done via table lookup. Once a sampling instrument has
begun, its turnoff point may be unpredictable and require an external
release envelope; this is often done by gating the sampled audio with
linenr, which will extend the duration of a turned-off instrument by a
specific period while it implements a decay.

EXAMPLE:

   inum   notnum
   icps   cpsmidi
   iamp   ampmidi   3000, 1
   ifno   table     inum, 2       ;notnum to choose an audio sample
   ibas   table     inum, 3
   kamp   linenr    iamp, 0, .05, .01 ;at noteoff, extend by 50 ms.
   asig   loscil    kamp, icps, ifno, cpsoct(ibas/12. + 3)/

Why are the tables not described in this example?

I am really trying to understand this. Does this mean audio table 2 contains
pointers to an audio table with samples and  table 3 contains pointers to  a 
table with the base frequencies of these samples?

Put it differently: if I have 2 samples of a violin one octave apart, what
should I put in these tables for loscil to interpolate the missing notes?
