II., 1882. pp. 29-54. See also Middleton, _Ancient Rome_, 1892, II. 15-19. The plan of Rome called the Capitoline Plan, because it is now preserved in the Museum of the Capitol, was fixed to the north-east wall (fig. 7. 3). [59] The average length of a roll may be taken at 20-30 ft.; the width at 9-11 in. See _The Palaeography of Greek Papyri_, by F. G. Kenyon, Oxf. 1899, Chap. II. [60] The breadth of these columns from left to right was not great, and their length was considerably shorter than the width of the roll, as a margin was left at the top and bottom.

It is original, and slightly different, in the replica of the statue at Knowle Park, Sevenoaks, Kent. See a paper on this statue by J. E. Sandys. Litt.D. in _Melanges Weil_, 1898. pp. 423-428.

James, Litt.D., of King's College, has kindly given me the following note: In the apocryphal Assumption of Moses Joshua is told to 'cedar' Moses' words (= rolls), and to lay them up in Jerusalem: "quos ordinabis et chedriabis et repones in vasis fictilibus in loco quem fecit [Deus] ab initio creaturae orbis terrarum." Assump. Mos., ed. Charles, I. 17. See also Dueange, s.v. Cedria. Vitruvius (II. ix. 13) says: "ex cedro oleum quod cedreum dicitur nascitur, quo reliquae res cum sint unctae, uti etiam libri, a tineis et earie non laeduntur." See above, p. 22. [69] _Epigrams_, III. ii. 6. [70] Ovid (_Tristia_, I. i. 105) addressing his book, says: Cum tamen in nostrum fueris penetrale receptus Contigerisque tuam, scrinia curva, domum.
