How to read Ezekiel 1:6-10? Ezekiel chapter one -sixth line - tenth line?

Context:

Cherubim feature at some length in the Book of Ezekiel. When they first appear in chapter one, when Ezekiel was "by the river Chebar", they are not called cherubims, but he saw "the likeness of four living creatures". (Ezekiel 1:5) Each of them had four faces and four wings, with straight feet with a sole like the sole of a calf's foot, and "hands of a man" under their wings. Each had four faces: The face of a man, the face of a lion on the right side, the face of an ox on the left side, and the face of an eagle. (Ezekiel 1:6-10)

Presumably the face of the eagle was on the back of the head.

Hi

It's a great piece of writing and I'm inclined to say that it's not about how you read it, but about how you see it

Here's an example that is nearly 500 years old. Apparently it is in Florence, Italy
