Transcriber's Notes
The letter n with a macron above it has been represented as [=n].
Some presumed printer's errors have been corrected, including normalizing punctuation. Unusual spellings and alternate spellings were preserved as printed, except where noted below. The variable spelling of proper names is addressed by the editor in the introduction (here) and in the preamble to the Index and Glossary (here). Therefore, in the few cases that a correction has been made to a proper name, the rationale for that correction has been provided. Corrections are listed below with the printed text (top) and corrected text (bottom):
(based on 10 occurrences of p/Paynim(s) and on the fact that the alternate spelling would significantly change the pronunciation)
(based on 2447 occurrences of Launcelot and only one occurrence of Launclot)

Duplicate words were removed in the following sentences (the duplicated word was always found at the end of one line and at the beginning of the next line):
The last three chapters of Book Four were renumbered to match the Table of Contents.
