The Prosody section of this e-text uses characters that require UTF-8 (Unicode) file encoding:

ā ē ī ō ū   [letters with macron or “long” mark]
ă ĕ ĭ ŏ ŭ y̆   [letters with breve or “short” mark; y̆ is rare]

In addition, the “oe” ligature œ is used consistently, and the decorative symbol ⁂ appears in the advertising section.

If any of these characters do not display properly—in particular, if the diacritic does not appear directly above the letter—or if the apostrophes and quotation marks in this paragraph appear as garbage, you may have an incompatible browser or unavailable fonts. First, make sure that the browser’s “character set” or “file encoding” is set to Unicode (UTF-8). You may also need to change your browser’s default font.

This book was written in 1840. It includes material that may be offensive to some readers. Students should be cautioned that the book predates “New Style” (classical) pronunciation. Note in particular the pronunciation of “j” (“Never jam today”) and of all vowels (“Yes, you Can-u-leia”).

Typographical errors are shown in the text with mouse-hover popups. A few unusual forms are similarly marked.
