● Transcriber’s Notes:
○ This document was transcribed from a handwritten text. The author
later made changes and insertions which are marked like this
[↑my], meaning the word “my” was written as an insertion at that
point.
○ There was no page numbered 5 in the manuscript.
○ In the paragraph beginning “I gave alms every year, gold,” there
is an illegible word.
○ Missing or obscured punctuation was silently corrected.
○ Typographical errors were silently corrected.
○ Inconsistent spelling and hyphenation were made consistent only
when a predominant form was found in this book.
○ Text that was in italics is enclosed by underscores (_italics_).
