The forms “lf.” and “bk.” have been silently regularized to “leaf” and “back”. The full word “leaf” has been supplied where missing, except in references to the Trentham MS., where it was consistently omitted in the original. Notes were variously printed in the side margin or at the bottom of the page, depending on space constraints. They have been treated as footnotes or sidenotes according to their function: information about the text or MS. (footnote), leaf- or column numbering (sidenote), narrative summary (sidenote). Where more than one MS was used, narrative sidenotes are shown at the beginning of each group of lines. The recurring words “No gap in MS.” are in the original; they are generally followed by one or more blank lines inserted to keep the texts parallel. The words are retained in _King Horn_ to preserve the editor’s line numbering; in the other texts they were retained only when needed to prevent ambiguity. The notation [[empty line]] in double brackets was added by the transcriber. Line numbering is as in the original. Printed numbers have been silently regularized to the EETS-standard multiple of 4. Each page of _King Horn_ was divided into three: the Cambridge and Laud versions in adjoining columns, and the Harleian across the bottom, with lines printed in pairs separated by a | divider. For this e-text, the Harleian text has been broken into single lines to match the other two. General sidenotes were originally printed in the Harleian section. Except for footnote markers and Transcriber’s Notes, all brackets [ ] are in the original. _Other Texts_ At time of preparation, the three diagrams shown in the Preface were available online at The Internet Archive: Wissmann on King Horn: http://www.archive.org/details/dasliedvonkingh00wissgoog (page n16) Herzog on Floris and Blancheflur in Scandinavia: http://www.archive.org/details/diebeidensagenk00herzgoog (page n100) Hausknecht on Floris and Blancheflur: http://www.archive.org/details/florisandblaunc00hausgoog (page n131)
