347; representing the eje-lashes (227), asLeiio, elicits the word 

 2£.u&.^, oppressor, and not " beholds," symbolically expressed by 

 the eye-lashes, as poor G. guessed. 



348. the figure of a wine-press, or rather of the screw with the 

 box called ^cojai, expresses hfu in numerous places. G. ^'E. 112, 

 595 ; T. S. i. 9, xvi. 9., where it signifies <2.^jw., homo. G. con- 

 nects the screw with the following W5, and brings out " therein." 



349. AMuji, Aieui, pugnare, expressed by the familiar letters ins. 



350. See 58,231,336. It is self-evident that this "mighty 

 god" concerns Vespasian, and that "the man warring against" 

 him denotes the rebel emperor Sabinus, who was defeated, and 

 absconded during a period of nine years. 



351. This figure of the reed is wanting in my copy, but repre- 

 sented by B. I therefore respectfully request the present Director 

 of the Museo Borbonico at Naples to examine the original, and 

 to decide the question. It is true that the papyrus-stalks are like- 

 wise preceded in Nos. 3^0, 302, 60, by the reed ; but, connecting 

 that El g-repi (the mighty hero) with the following host^ we 

 obtain a tolerable sense. Comp. Jes. 9, 5, where Qiij isx (el goyim) 

 is "the lord of the nations"; o.py^LOV educov represents a similar 

 composition. 



352. See 60,302, 19,36,47. G. again improvisates, "both 

 lands." 



353. See 312. G. creates a new god, called " Turn." 



354. The human head (/a/9«, y.E(paJ:q ; G. Kop, Kopf; ciip, kop), 

 followed by /, gives caput., oo^it, a. ^ottit (kbt). See G.^.44, 

 116. And hence we have the word "caput," princeps. G. sug- 

 gests " in." 



355 is not a picture of a hazel nut, Re^pick, but the Egyptian 

 apron (see T. B. 125, etc.), as I learned from the late Prof. H. 

 Wutke in Leipzic, called aceA, and hence expressing the letters 

 i/, kr., e.g. in croAfii, fur (T. S.) See PI. xxxii. 454, a. Accord- 

 ingly our group, spelled krb., exhibits the word xopcf-j, the 

 corrupted lyopn, princeps, principalis. G. holds the apron for 

 " sanctuary," and the snake for the suffix " his." 



356, the notorious letters t/ip, -cvoiriM, signifying porta, and then 

 a house. Accordingly the groups 354, 355 and 356 contain the 

 words: (the image) of the chief of the capital city. On this 

 occasion we learn that the tutelar god of Rome, viz. Jupiter
