The Ancient Near East. (Vol. 1) Princeton University Press, 1958. Note from the Preface: Italics have been used in the translations to designate a doubtful translation of a known text or for transliterations. Square brackets have been employed for restorations in the text; round brackets (parentheses) have been put around interpolations made for a better understanding of the translation; obvious scribal omissions have been placed between triangular brackets. In the translations from Ugaritic, half square brackets have been used to designate a text which has been partly restored. A lacuna has been indicated by three dots; in case the lacuna comes before a final sentence dot, four dots appear. References to the tablets, columns, lines of the text have been given usually in parentheses either within the translation, as in prose, or in the right-hand margin, when the form is poetry. Capital Roman numerals have been used for columns; Arabic numerals indicate the line or lines.
