Transcriber’s Note and List of Contents

Page numbers for the 1888 edition are given in-text printed in red. Stephanus numbers are given in the right margin. Sidenotes are given in the left margin. Things may be different on a small width screen: sidenotes and page numbers are removed, the Stephanus numbers are included in the body of the text in green. This means that most, but not all, internal cross-references should still work.

The 1888 edition does not have a Table of Contents. The following listing provides hyperlinks to distinct sections of the work.
