TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Original spelling and grammar have been generally retained, with some exceptions noted below. Original printed page numbers are shown like this: {52}. Footnotes have been relabeled 1–598, converted to endnotes, and moved to just ahead of the Index. Illustrations have been moved from within paragraphs to nearby locations between paragraphs. Page numbers for dislocated full-page illustrations are removed. I produced the cover image and assign it to the public domain. Original page images are available from archive.org—search for “englishwayfaring00jussmiss”.
Page [19], description of illustration 51. The last three letters of ‹fabliau› were invisible on the printed page.
Page [48n]. The latin small letter l in ‹Introduction, p. l.› is retained.
Page [49n]. ‹Belleforset› was changed to ‹Belleforest›, to agree with the index.
Page [69]. The link ‹(p. 47)› was changed to ‹(p. 37)›.
Page [82]. Single right quotation mark was substituted for the double quotation mark after ‹with the high steeple?›.
Page [83]. Double quotation mark after ‹Why do you say so?› was changed to single right quotation mark.
Page [107n]. The link ‹p. 110› was changed to ‹p. 108›.
Page [126n]. The single quotation mark in ‹‘Domestic Architecture› was replaced by double left quotation mark.
Page [136]. Changed ‹Rennaissance› to ‹Renaissance›.
Page [206n]. Note 1 had no anchor in the text; a new one was placed after ‹A curious example of this is recorded in John of Gaunt’s register,›.
Page [222]. The illustration, judging by its location on the original page, appears to belong to the footnote. But judging by the content of footnote and illustration, they are not related. Therefore, the illustration has been retained on page 222.
Page [226]. Changed ‹almost eve y one› to ‹almost every one›.
Page [261n]. Changed ‹Prenez le par le ccu› to ‹Prenez le par le cou›.
Page [265n]. Added right double quotation mark after ‹Rolls of Parliament,›.
Page [289]. Changed ‹af er masse› to ‹after masse›.
Page [301n]. Retained ‹Hence the reproaches the satirists:›. From the looks of the page, there should possibly be another word between ‹reproaches› and ‹the›, such as ‹of›.
Page [340]. Changed ‹Humphry de Bohun, Earl of Hereford› to ‹Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford›.
Page [356]. Retained ‹gave opprobious names to the gentlemen which then counselled him to leave his stubornness›.
Page [389n]. Changed ‹Societé› to ‹Société›.
Page [449], INDEX. The original punctuation is strange, particularly in the use of semicolons. There was seemingly a method for this, but it was a complicated one, imperfectly applied. The original punctuation and structure of the index has been retained, with a few exceptions mentioned below.
Key phrase [Amants Magnifiques]: changed ‹Moliére’s› to ‹Molière’s›. Keyword [Austria]: changed ‹Albert W.› to ‹Albert IV›.
Page [450], keyword ‹Boccacio› changed to ‹Boccaccio›. The link for ‹Bridges, Roman› to page 68 (which was blank) was changed to page 69.
Page [451], keyword [Canterbury]: changed ‹piilgrimage› to ‹pilgrimage›. Also, one of the links was to page ‹34›; but that page was blank in the original. There is mention of Thomas of Canterbury on page 43, so that might be the intended reference.
Page [452], keyword [Dances]: changed ‹cemetries› to ‹cemeteries›.
Page [454], keyword [Forsate]: changed ‹162› to ‹164›.
Page [457], keyword ‹Liége› changed to ‹Liège›.
Page [458], keyword [Nicholson, Wm.]: changed ‹162› to ‹164›.
