Errors and Inconsistencies

All typographical errors are listed near their first occurrence. Most

are trivial, such as missing or incorrect punctuation, or misplaced

macrons in quoted material. The word “invisible” means that there is an

appropriately sized blank space but the letter or punctuation mark

itself is missing. The notation “macron invisible” applies only to the

letter i, and means that the text shows a plain ı (neither dot nor

diacritic visible) where the expected form is ī. With other letters it

is impossible to know whether the macron is absent or simply invisible.

Long Vowel before -gn:

In the first edition, all words in -gn- were written with preceding long

edition, but some forms remain:
