[Transcriber's Note:
As explained in Footnote n, John Dee's Diary includes occasional
words and phrases written in Greek script, but in the English
language. Since a direct transliteration would spoil the effect,
these passages are shown in the simple "Rotate-13" code. Details are
given at the end of the text, before the Errata. A few words of true
Greek have been transliterated and shown between +marks+. Latin words
written in Greek script are treated the same way.
Letters written in superscript are shown in {braces} or as ordinals:
A{o} (_Anno_), 5ª (_quinta_). For consistency, the abbreviation f^o
in manuscript descriptions is shown as fº to match 4º and 8º.
Footnotes to the Diary have small letters: [a], [b]. Footnotes to the
Catalogue are numbered: [1], [2]. Except for footnote references, all
text in brackets is in the original, as are parenthetical question
marks.]
