Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a
predominant preference was found in the original book; otherwise they
were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; unbalanced quotation
marks were remedied when the change was obvious, and otherwise left
unbalanced.
Contractions using ’t, such as “’t is” were printed with a space
separating the “’t” from the preceding or following word. Today, we
omit the space (“’tis”), but since all of them were printed with the
space in the original book, the space has been retained here.
