Hello there. I'm quite desperate for a bit of help here with writing hieroglyphs vertically. More specifically, I want Ria to be written before "given life, like Ra, forever" in one column. I have an image of that expression here at http://www.uponreflection.co.uk/heiro/express/l_img/given_life_likera_forever.jpg written horizontally, but I'm not sure what symbols in it would be grouped together when written vertically. I'm a novice at this, but I'm guessing, for instance, that the snake in the expression, along with the half-circle and rectangle under it would be written together in a "row"?
Also, I'd like "Beloved of Isis" written in another vertical column, and once again, I have the same problem with discovering which symbols would be grouped together, and which left alone in a "row." I'm referring to the images shown here (http://www.uponreflection.co.uk/heiro/express/l_img/beloved_of.jpg) for "Beloved of..." and here (http://www.uponreflection.co.uk/heiro/gods/img/1isis.jpg) for the goddess Isis.
Altogether it would read "Ria given, like Ra, eternal life. Beloved of Isis," but I like the idea of both fragmented sentences being in a seperate column, vertically, next to one another. I'm not sure which "sentence" would be on the left and which right? I'm guessing if the heiroglyphs are facing left, then the Ria sentence would be on the left and the Isis one next to it, on the right?
Thank you so much to anyone who spent the time reading this. PLEASE help if you can, my gratitude will be IMMENSE!!
