PLYMOUTH Transcriber's note Words in italics were surrounded by _underscores_ and in bold by =signs=. Anchors for footnote 33 and 34 were added, after careful consideration where they should have been. Some illustrations were slightly moved for reader convenience, but the bold numbers in the index, leading to the original pages, were not changed.
