Transcriber's Note.
Variable spelling and hyphenation have been retained. Minor punctuation
inconsistencies have been silently repaired. Footnotes were renumbered
and placed at the end of each section. The Index was copied from the
third volume. The entry _Tockinosh, John, ii, 23._ does not correspond
to the text.
