This e-text includes characters that require UTF-8 (Unicode) file encoding. The most common are:

ὠκύπτεροςGreek, usually in references to word derivation
ĀĒĪŌŪ āēīōūȳletters with macron or “long” mark
ĂĬŎŬ ăĕĭŏŭletters with breve or “short” mark
√ ∴“root” and “therefore” symbols

If any of these characters do not display properly—in particular, if the diacritic does not appear directly above the letter—or if the apostrophes and quotation marks in this paragraph appear as garbage, you may have an incompatible browser or unavailable fonts. First, make sure that the browser’s “character set” or “file encoding” is set to Unicode (UTF-8). You may also need to change your browser’s default font.

All brackets [ ] and braces { } are in the original.
