If you really wanted to follow the conventions of ancient Greek, you would have had more than one line so that it could be done boustrophedon[1] style.

As the ox ploughs IIRC (or plows if you prefer). I don't know if there are any examples of the Romans using that, and the Greeks only did it sometimes, probably to annoy people on mailing lists :-)
