Transcriber's note:
The ligatures oe and OE are indicated by [oe] and [OE].
The carat (^) indicates a superscript in the original. One
carat indicates that the following single letter is
superscript. A pair of carats indicates that the enclosed
letters are superscript; for example the abbreviations
8^vo^ and 12^mo^ are used for the printer's page sizes
octavo and duodecimo respectively.
In the poem "In Etesiam Lachrymantem" (Page 221) the
initial letter of the final line is missing in all extant
editions; either "C" or "D" seems possible.
In the Boethius translation Lib. IV. Metrum VI. (page 230),
the letter 'y' has been added to make line 9/10 read
"...though they/See other stars..." although it is missing
in all available editions.
At many points a period, comma or hyphen seems to be
omitted in the original. Obvious typographical errors have
been corrected, but where missing punctuation is not clearly
an error, or the omission is harmless to the sense, the text
remains as in the original.
Footnotes in the original appear on the page where they are
referenced and are numbered from 1 on each page. Here
footnotes are numbered consecutively throughout the book and
are grouped following each chapter or poem to which they
refer. To locate footnote 17 (for example) search for [17].
Another search for [17] returns to the point of reference.
