CONFESSOR", to "273".

philosophical schools ..."
Page 145: "almosts without number," to "almost without number,".
Page 161: opening quotation mark inserted before "First" in "The
candidates swore: First,".
Page 174: the close quotation mark is missing from the paragraph
beginning '1002. "In this year ...'. It is not entirely clear where it
belongs; perhaps after 'evil.', where it has been placed.
Page 178: The passage "all England south of the Thames—East Anglia and
Essex and London" seems wrong, as these areas are mostly north of the
Thames.

places.

to, 157; 278. 282, 306" to "Cnut's likeness to, 157, 278, 282, 306".
Page 373: "character, of, 64;" to "character of, 64;".
