  • New original cover art included with this eBook is granted to the public domain.
  • A table of contents has been added.
  • Obvious typographical errors have been silently corrected. It is clear that there are many typesetter errors, but corrections were only made where typos were obvious or to clarify meaning, never just to modernize spelling or even to make it consistent.
  • Font 'Old English Text MT' is recommended to view blackletter text.
  • Errata have been applied.
  • Some sections have long blank spaces, apparently for words left out.
  • Some paragraphs start with a drop-cap "R.", this is probably meant to be "℞", but is left as printed. It appears that the printer did not have a large font "℞".
