Inscription

Layout
The text maintains a justified left margin, but uneven right margin, with words regularly broken across the line-end, and no attempt to make the end of the text symmetrical or to match the content to the line-length / layout, as opposed to simply a consistent filling of the face until the text is complete.

complete
