To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was twenty cubits in height, with three diadems or. Its head to indicate that the personage commem- orated had been the daughter, wife and mother of kings. After the second pylon was discovered an- other peristyle more remarkable than the first. It was adorned with different sculptures, figuratively illustrating the war that this king had maintained against the revolted Bactrians. He had marched against them at the head of four hundred thousand foot and twenty thousand horsemen, after having... diviclcd his army into four bodies, commanded by the princes, his sons. " Upon the first wall of this peristyle Osymandyas was represented besieging a fortress surrounded by a river, exposing himself to the blows of his ene- mies, and accompanied by a terrible lion which served him as an auxiliary in his combats. Amouy those who explain these carvings, some say that it was a real lion, tamed, fed by the king's own hand, and taugut to accompany him while attacking and pursuing his enemies. Others maintain that this king, who was distinguished above all the rest for his valor and his strength, intended to sound his own praises by symbolizing his qualities in the fig- ure of a lion.
