Original spelling and grammar have been generally retained, with some exceptions noted below. Original printed page numbers are shown like this: {52}. Footnotes have been relabeled 1–75, and moved from within paragraphs to nearby locations between paragraphs. The transcriber produced the cover image and hereby assigns it to the public domain. Original page images are available from archive.org—search for “cu31924029894759”.

The poetry indents are ap­prox­i­mate­ly cor­rect in lim­it­ed cir­cum­stances. The in­dents were measured and ad­just­ed using a mono­space font: “Adobe Source Code Pro”. Variable-width fonts will look less ac­cu­rate. Moreover, the poetry was orig­i­nal­ly printed on pages having text-width roughly 44em, again using the “Source Code Pro” for the measurement. Ebook browser screens that are narrower than roughly 25em will have dif­fi­culties with some of the longer poetry indents—but selection of a smaller font-size will improve this situation.
