way of the tomb is very small, and

each containing a single sarcophagus.

καί σύ are a little larger than those
adjacent to them, and are slightly

suum in sempiternum diis manibus suis et Fl. Titiae, uxoris suae, inferisque, et heredibus
suis, posterisque eorum, ut ne liceret ulli eorum abalienare ullo modo id monumentum.
