'Reflection' of text

Hi all,

I managed to reflect a string of text 'SCOTTS ROAD' by rotating each
character in reverse order, by 180 degrees using the tspan element.
Is there a anyway to rotate the entire text instead of one character at a
time?
My codes are as follows:


<svg width='600' height='600' viewBox='0 0 230 230' xml:space='preserve'
version='1.1'
	xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'
	xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'
	xmlns:ev='http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events'>
<rect width='230' height='190' fill='rgb(203,203,228)' stroke-width='0' />

<defs>
<clipPath id='clip1'>
<path d='M 0 0 L 0 300 L 300 300 L 300 0 Z' />
</clipPath>
</defs>


<defs>
		<path id='scotts road2' altname='scotts road' d='
		M3.4545454545454546,32.20000000000002 
		L21.636363636363637,56.80000000000001 
		L53.0,99.70000000000002 
		L72.54545454545455,125.8 
		L72.54545454545455,125.8  ' clip-path='url(#clip1)' />

</defs>
			
		
		<use xlink:href='#scotts road2' altname='scotts road' fill='none'
stroke='rgb(252,233,3)' stroke-width='3.5'/>

		
<text font-family='Verdana' fill='black'>		


		<textPath xlink:href='#scotts road2' startOffset='34.39907702479869%'
clip-path='url(#clip1)' font-size='4'>
<tspan dy='1.5'>SCOTTS ROAD</tspan>


<tspan rotate="180">D</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">A</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">O</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">R</tspan>

<tspan rotate="180">S</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">T</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">T</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">O</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">C</tspan>
<tspan rotate="180">S</tspan>

</textPath>

hi pires7,

what about inverting the vertex order of your path?
