  Transcriber's Note: The text is divided into 5 "Conferences" and 41 sections. Marginal notes indicating the start of individual sections have been converted into section headings. Other notes have been numbered and moved to the end of each Conference. They often refer to the following (rather than preceding) passage, and if so are positioned accordingly. The locations of the marker for Note 13, and of the start of Section 8, are unclear: they have been inserted in accordance with the sense of the text. Other markers that do not correspond to marginal notes have been removed. The "*" that are retained in sections 11, 13 and 18 do not indicate marginal notes, but instead function as bullet points. Variations in spelling have been retained with the exception of the following:
Obscured text has been transcribed as follows:
At the beginning of Conference 1 a brace, extending over several lines, has been replaced by a column of individual braces. For technical reasons drop capitals have been removed from Conference summaries; and numbering removed, before drop capitals, at the start of each Conference text. When a word in italics is followed by "'s" the latter may or may not be italicised. This inconsistency has been retained. Inconsistent hyphenation has also been retained. The Text has been corrected in accordance with the Errata section. Mismatched brackets and parentheses have been removed and apparent punctuation errors corrected. THE |
