They look like this. Though the scribe wouldn't make a mistake like this. he would've had it outlined already.

You know it’s not that easy to write that stuff. First the scribe guy has to go catch a bald eagle and jerk a feather out of him. Then he has to whittle the feather end to a sharp point to nail down his font size. And I’m not sure what he has to kill to get the black ink? Having worked pretty hard to get it right in drafting class I have lots of respect for those old scribblers.
