However, the original used | | italics to highlight certain letters within words where | | these were intended to help with remembering numbers and | | dates according to the "Analytic substitution" memory | | method. For legibility, these have been rendered using | | {c}u{rl}y {br}ac{k}e{ts}. | | | | Some of the numbered lists were originally wrapped together | | as a paragraph; for legibility some of these have been | | changed to separate lines. This applies particularly to the | | lists of questions: these blocks were originally placed like | | footnotes at the bottom of pages, but here have been moved | | to an appropriate break in the main text. | | | | Some obvious printer errors have been corrected, full | | details of which can be found in the HTML version of this | | eBook. The inconsistent hyphenation of several words, and | | inconsistent use of -ise and -ize spellings, has been left | | as in the original. | | | | | +--------------------------------------------------------------+ [Illustration: [Handwritten: A.
