[ m], [ n] "m", "n" and other letters with overline or macron Greek has been transliterated and shown between marks; single Greek

shown as two asterisks .
This very long book has been separated into independent units, set off
by triple rows of asterisks: [1] Early English Text Society (information and list of titles)
[2] Introductory pages with full table of contents
[3] General Preface ("Forewords")
[4] Preface to Russell, Boke of Nurture
[5] Collations and Corrigenda

[14] General Index (excluding Postscript)
[15] Postscript "added after the Index had been printed"
[16] Collected Sidenotes (section added by transcriber: editor's
sidenotes can be read as a condensed version of full text) Each segment has its own footnotes and errata lists. Readers may choose
to divide them into separate files. The following notes on text format
apply to all texts and will not be repeated in full. Italics and other text markings: Italicized letters within words, representing expanded abbreviations,
are shown in the e text with braces ("curly brackets"): co{n}nyng{e}.
Readers who find this added information distracting may globally delete
all braces; they are not used for any other purpose. Whole word italics
are shown in the usual way with lines . Superscripts are shown with ^,
and boldface or blackletter type with marks. Page Layout: In the original book, each text page contained several types of
secondary material printed in all four margins. The HTML version of
this e text offers a closer approximation of the original appearance. Headnotes appeared at the top of alternate pages, like subsidiary
chapter headings. In longer selections they have been retained and
moved to the beginning of the most appropriate paragraph; some are
also grouped at the beginning of a selection to act as a detailed
table of contents. Footnotes were numbered separately for each page. In this e text,
general footnotes are numbered sequentially and grouped at the end of
the selection. In some selections, text notes (glosses or variant
readings) are marked with capital letters [A] and are kept in small
groups near each passage. Footnotes in the form [[10a]] are additional
notes from the editor's Corrigenda. Footnotes with symbols [10] are
footnotes to footnotes . Sidenotes were generally added by the editor to give translations
or summaries. In this e text, they are always collected into full
sentences. In some verse selections, sidenotes appear immediately
before their original location, with no further marking. In other
selections including all prose passages sidenotes are collected
into longer paragraphs and placed after the text they refer to. These
will be identified either by line number or by lower case letters [a]
showing their original location. Sidenotes in the form [Fol. 10b] or [Page 27] are shown inline, within
the body text. Numbered notes printed in the side margin were generally
treated as footnotes or text notes... Continue reading book >>
