The decrees of Memphis and Canopus
A three-volume scholarly edition and translation of the Rosetta Stone and the Decree of Canopus by Egyptologist E. A. Wallis Budge, published in London and New York in 1904 for students of Egyptian inscriptions. The line engravings show profile heads of Ptolemaic rulers and gods wearing tall composite crowns of papyrus, plumes, and sun disks, drawn as clean outline with hatched fill.
