There are several inconsistencies in hyphenation. The following words appear in the text both with and without a hyphen: bed-chamber, bed-time, egg-shell, god-father, house-door, in-doors, mill-stone, sea-side, step-mother, up-stairs.
A picture (tailpiece to The Wonderful Musician) listed in the List of Illustrations was not found in two different copies of the book.
I have changed or added wrong or missing punctuation in the following phrases:


There was once a woman who lived with her daughter in a beautiful cabbage-garden; and there came a rabbit and ate up all the cabbages. At last said the woman to her daughter,
Go into the garden, and drive out the rabbit.
Shoo! shoo! said the maiden; don't eat up all our cabbages, little rabbit!
