I have a text from the Nebonidus Harran inscriptions that I want to specifically reference in my paper. The quote looks like this: > …(But) the sons of Babylon, Borsippa, > 15. Nippur, Ur, Erech, Larsa, priests (and) > 16. people of the capitals of Akkad, against his great > 17. divinity offended, whenever(?) they sought after (anything) they did wickedly, > 18. they knew not the wrath, (the resentment), of the king of the gods, (even) Nannar, > 19. they forgot their duty, whenever(?) they talked (it was) treason… How do I input this text? Do I keep it in separate lines like they have it in the inscription? Or do I remove the numbers and put it all together? I am using the MLA format in my paper. It will be a Research/Argumentative paper.
