Transcriber’s Notes: - Text enclosed by underscores is in italics (_italics_). - Text enclosed by equals is in bold (=bold=). - Blank pages have been removed. - Obvious typographical errors have been silently corrected; 2 cases of an upside down ‘e’ were treated as errors, one was just the word ‘these’, the other had an inverted ‘s’ on the same line. - Some variations in hyphenation have been standardized.
