Transcriber Notes:


1. The original text is dual column, with English on the LHS and French on the RHS. In this version, the complete English text is presented first, followed by the complete French text.

2. The page numbering is, of necessity, quite different from the original text. Each scene and score simply has its own page number.

3. The Table of Contents below was created specifically for this version, there was no Table of Contents in the original version.
