Infrequent spelling of "Plotinus" changed to the predominant "Plotinos."

Several opening or closing parentheses and quotation marks are

unmatched; Transcriber has not attempted to determine where they belong.

This four-volume set contains fifty-four "Books," each of which

contains several Sections. Some of the "Books" group those Sections

into sub-Chapters whose headings begin with a letter: "A.", "B.", etc.

(see page 387 as an example). In this plain text version of this eBook,

the Sections and the sub-Chapters are preceded by two blank lines.

Section headings beginning with letter enumerations, such as A. B. C.

were printed larger than normal Section headings.

Page 377: "lation as (form)" perhaps should be "relation as (form)";

unchanged here.

Page 387: "two order of things" perhaps should be "two orders of

things".

Page 459: "who is imaging to know" probably should be who is "imagining

to know".

Page 459: the opening parenthesis in "which (the Soul herself" has no

matching closing parenthesis; it probably belongs after "Soul".

Page 467: incorrect/inconsistent single and double quotation marks in

the following line have not been changed:

passion' and suffering, unless the word "suffering'

Page 470: "What in us in the soul's" perhaps should be "What in us is

the soul's".

Page 494: in the source, the last line, "who assumes the various poses

suggested by the music," was out of place; no suitable place for it was

found, so it has been removed for continuity and now appears only in

this note.

Page 530: the closing parenthesis after "perceived object" also is

the closing parenthesis for the phrase beginning "is ill-founded".

There are other instances in this four-volume set in which closing

parentheses and quotation marks are shared.

Page 555: "within yourself they you may" perhaps should be "within

yourself then you may".

Page 613: "a constitution similar that of each" probably should be "a

constitution similar to that of each".

Footnote Issues:

In these notes, "anchor" means the reference to a footnote, and

"footnote" means the information to which the anchor refers. Anchors

occur within the main text, while footnotes are grouped in sequence at

the end of this eBook. The structure of the original book required two

exceptions to this, as explained below.

The original text used chapter endnotes. In this eBook, they have been

combined into a single, ascending sequence based on the sequence in

which the footnotes occurred in the original book, and placed at the

end of the eBook. Several irregularities are explained below.

1. Some footnotes are referenced by more than one anchor, so two or

more anchors may refer to the same footnote.

2. Some anchors were out of sequence, apparently because they were

added afterwards or because they are share a footnote with another

anchor. They have been renumbered to match the numbers of the footnotes

to which they refer.

Page 349: Footnote 16 (originally 2) has no anchor.

Page 597: Footnote 251 (originally 9) has no anchor.
