CLUB NOTES AND DISCUSSIONS. 195 



II. Passet. This is treated as 3rd person singular. Why 

 not 2nd person plural? Then we get the "Vous passez" of 

 modern French, which construction is found on some such slabs. 



III. Prie. I regard this as Imperative, not as Indicative ; 

 but as the lettering is imperfect a real decision cannot be made. 



IV. H (" of a hundred days "). This letter is not an H. A 

 visit to the slab will convince anyone of this. What the flourish 

 on the I means, I do not know. A part of it may be a flaw in 

 the marble : but the letter is not an H.
