If some of the characters look abnormal, first ensure that the device’s character encoding is set to Unicode (UTF-8).

The following typographic errors have been corrected silently:
cought —> caught
conderable —> considerable
rhubard —> rhubarb
therfore —> therefore
smoaked —> smoked
teized —> seized
choaked —> choked
wereat —> were at
inculation —> inoculation
throngh —> through
anamalous —> anomalous

Archaic spellings are as in the original but archaic long ‘s’ letters (ſ) have been replaced by the standard letter ‘s’.

Spelling inconsistencies such as dram/drachm, and unpaired square brackets are as in the original.

A short table of contents has been inserted by the transcriber to assist the reader.

The cover image of the book was created by the transcriber and is placed in the public domain.
