5. In Christmas Dreams, the word "stravaigging" was corrected to
"stravaiging."
6. "Hang up the Baby's Stocking" was not attributed in the Table of
Contents or in the text in the original edition. For clarity this edition
attributed both as follows: [Emily Huntington Miller]. Attribution makes
the text more readable. Without it one could believe the poem to have
been written by Andrew Lang; especially after Haven inserts an extra
poem by Southwell, "A Carol" following "The Wassailer's Song," which
is unlisted in the contents.
7. Finally, the 1907 edition includes a story called "Golden Cobwebs" at
the close of section IV that was not included in the 1968 edition used
for this transcription.
