• Transcriber’s Note:
  • The reader will encounter "[TN1]" once. [TN1] identifies an error in the original book: “ETSAXA” should have been “ET SAXA”.
  • The reader will encounter [TN2] three times. [TN2] identifies a place where a character could not be reproduced and was replaced by an apostrophe (example: "PETR’[TN2]).
