Transcriber's Note

Page 202--the marker for footnote 2 was missing in the original. The transcriber has estimated where it should have been, based on the text and reference material therein.

Page 303 includes an excerpt from Psalm 45, with quoted verse numbers of 10, 14 and 15. These should be verses 9, 13 and 14.

Archaic spelling is preserved as printed. Variable spelling, hyphenation and use of accents has been made consistent where there was a clear prevalence of one form over the other, or with reference to reliable sources; otherwise, these are preserved as printed. Typographic errors, e.g. omitted, superfluous or transposed letters, and punctuation errors have been repaired. Other amendments are as follows:

Plate 71--precipit amended to precepit and omitted word
'pio' added--"... Aelfled fieri precepit pio Episcopo
Fridestano."

There are a number of discrepancies between the information in the list of illustrations (LOI) and the information on the plates themselves. Some of these are simple omission, others involve conflicting information. The transcriber has resolved and repaired some of these differences with reference to alternative sources. In general, it seems that the information on the plate is correct. Those that could not be resolved are as follows:

Pl. 5--LOI has "Journal Asiatique,
Syro-Egyptien-Phœnicien." Plate has "Journal
Asiatique, Coupe de Palestrina."

Pl. 9--LOI has "sixteenth century." Plate has
"seventeenth century."

Pl. 10--LOI has "5, 6, 7. Egyptian smooth and rippling
wave pattern." Plate has "5, 6, 7. Egyptian Smooth and
Rippling Water Patterns."

Pl. 10--LOI has "10, 11, 14. Babylonian and Chaldean."
Plate has "10, 11, 14. Assyrian."

Pl. 11--LOI omits Assyrian references.

Pl. 12--LOI has "2, 3. Egyptian. 4, 5. Greek." Plate has
"2, 3. Indian Lotus Patterns. 4, 5. Egyptian Lotus
Patterns."

Pl. 15--LOI has "Book of Kells." Plate has "Lindisfarne
Gospels."

Pl. 20--LOI has "1, 2, 3. Assyrian. 4. Sicilian Silk. 5.
Mediæval." Plate has "1, 2, 3, 5. Assyrian. 4.
Sicilian Silk."

Pl. 28--LOI has "1. Dress patterns from old MS. 2, 3.
Old English tiles." Plate has "1, 2. Gothic tiles. 3.
Gothic Border of a Dress. 4. Gothic Vine."

Pl. 31--LOI omits mention of a third Egyptian fundata
pattern.

Pl. 32--LOI references "Bock's Lit. Gew. ii. p. 246."
Plate references "Vol i. taf. xi."

Pl. 35--LOI omits mention of a peacock pattern. Plate
omits mention of Persian type.

Pl. 41--The source of the examples are either omitted or
different on the LOI to those given on the plate.

Pl. 68--LOI has "sixteenth century." Plate has
"fifteenth century."

Pl. 70--LOI has "A.D. 434." Plate has "sixth century."

Pl. 72--LOI "ST. GREGORY AND ST. JOHN (PROPHET)." Plate
has "St. John" and "St. Roger."

Pl. 74--LOI gives different title for Strutt's book to
that given on the plate. From research, it seems that
the short title is actually "The Regal and
Ecclesiastical Antiqities of England."

Pl. 76--LOI has "twelfth century." Plate has "XIII.
century."

Illustrations have been moved where necessary so that they are not in the middle of a paragraph. Some of the plates do not have numbers on the plate themselves.
