In William Shakespeare's <em>Romeo and Juliet </em>(Act 3, Scene 5), Capulet and the nurse enter the stage and he starts talking to Lady Capulet about how she cries nonstop. She compares her and her little body to a ship, the sea and the wind. He goes on to say that if she doesn't stop crying soon, her raging wind (sighs) and the sea (her eyes overflowing with tears) are going to sink her ship (her body).

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, by James Cross Giblin.
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: Translating the demotic text on the Rosetta Stone took the work of many scholars.

In this text, the author mentions that Heinrich Karl Brugsch was the first scholar who truly understood the symbols in the demotic passage. However, he also claims that the scholar developed his work after other scholars such as De Sacy, Akerblad, Young and Champollion had made some progress with it. Moreover, he states that Dr. J. J. Hess published an even more detailed version of it. This supports the idea that translating the Rosetta Stone took the work of many scholars.
