INDEX

Transcriber's Notes: This book contains documents written in 17th-and 18th-Century English, Dutch, French, and other languages. Inconsistencies of spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and hyphenation have been preserved as they appear in the original. (See the last paragraph of the Preface for the editor's note on this.) A few obvious printer errors in the editor's footnotes have been corrected.

The original contains a number of blank spaces to represent missing matter. These are represented here as long dashes.

The arrangement of "Captain Kid's Farewel to the Seas" is from Helen Kendrick Johnson, Our Familiar Songs and Those Who Made Them, pp. 171-72 (New York: H. Holt, 1909).

Some full-page tables have been moved so as not to interrupt the flow of the text. Some page numbers are skipped as a result.
