Chapter I: Front Matter

Text size

Transcriber's Note.

Apparent typographical errors have been corrected. The use of hyphens and of accents has been rationalised.

Italics are indicated by _underscores_. Small capitals have been replaced by full capitals. "oe" ligatures have been removed. Superscripted characters have been replaced by ordinary font and preceded by an apostrophe.

Section headings in chapter II, which are in italics, are preceded by two blank lines. Elsewhere two blank lines between paragraphs indicate that they were widely separated in the original text.
