Transcriber’s Note: The original copy of this book wasn’t very well proofread, if at all. A large number of printing errors have been corrected, including transposed full lines of text. In one place (noted below) at least one line was omitted completely: it wasn’t possible to source another edition to check what the missing words might have been. The spelling and hyphenation of Egyptian names are often inconsistent.
