[272-1] This method will be adopted throughout this paper where figures
containing numerals are introduced.
[273-1] In the representations of lines and columns of the codex Roman
numbers are necessarily used to distinguish the class of numerals, yet in
the text, as in this case, the Arabic numbers will be used as most
convenient.
[273-2] Strictly speaking, the interval between 11 Men and 13 Oc is
fourteen days, but throughout this paper, by "_interval between_" two
days, is to be understood the number of days to be counted _from_ one _to
and including_ the other. The one counted from is always _excluded_ and
the one reached or with which the interval terminates is always
_included_.

[277-1] Throughout this paper when the words "figure" and "character" are
used in reference to what appears in the codex, they are to be understood
as follows: "figure" refers to the picture, as of a person, animal, or
other object in the spaces; "character" refers to the hieroglyphics or
written symbols.

photographic copy makes it Ix, as it should be.
