Pennsylvania Tablet
Reading edition
The 240 lines of the six columns of the text are enumerated in succession, with an indication on the margin where a new column begins. This method, followed also in the case of the Yale tablet, seems preferable to Langdon’s breaking up of the text into Obverse and Reverse, with a separate enumeration for each of the six columns. In order, however, to facilitate a comparison with Langdon’s edition, a table is added:
Obverse Col. I, 1 = Line 1 of our text.
,, I, 5 = ,, 5 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 10 = ,, 10 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 15 = ,, 15 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 20 = ,, 20 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 25 = ,, 25 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 30 = ,, 30 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 35 = ,, 35 ,, ,, ,,
Col. II, 1 = Line 41 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 5 = ,, 45 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 10 = ,, 50 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 15 = ,, 55 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 20 = ,, 60 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 25 = ,, 65 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 30 = ,, 70 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 35 = ,, 75 ,, ,, ,,
Col. III, 1 = Line 81 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 5 = ,, 85 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 10 = ,, 90 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 15 = ,, 95 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 26 = ,, 100 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 25 = ,, 105 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 30 = ,, 110 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 35 = ,, 115 ,, ,, ,,
Reverse Col. I, 1 (= Col. IV) = Line 131 of our text.
,, I, 5 = ,, 135 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 10 = ,, 140 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 15 = ,, 145 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 20 = ,, 150 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 25 = ,, 155 ,, ,, ,,
,, I, 30 = ,, 160 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 1 (= Col. V) = Line 171 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 5 = ,, 175 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 10 = ,, 180 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 15 = ,, 185 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 20 = ,, 190 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 25 = ,, 195 ,, ,, ,,
,, II, 30 = ,, 200 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 1 (= Col. VI) = Line 208 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 5 = ,, 212 ,, ,, ,,
,, III, 10 = ,, 217 ,, ,, ,,
