Transcriber's Note:
Every effort has been made to replicate this text as faithfully as possible. Minor typographical errors have been corrected.
Some words are sometimes hyphenated, and sometimes not hyphenated.
All reasonable variants of spelling, grammar and punctuation have been retained.
There are a lot of sometimes old foreign words, and some French/English hybrid text from earlier centuries.
England did not have spelling or punctuation rules until the various Public Instruction Acts (c. 1860-70) in Queen Victoria's reign. In this book, that may have also extended to French and
Latin spellings!!
Punctuation is not always regular; some opened quotes are not always closed.
Mismatched quotes often occur with quotations where the quotation is enclosed within double quotes and each line or paragraph within that quote begins with double quotes but has no
end double quote.
Page 15: 'discretionbus' changed to 'discretionibus'.
Page 45: Unspaced punctuation, e.g. "Near Battle Bridge,'tis plain, sirs:", is as printed, and denotes elisions (the running together of words to fit the metre).
Page 104: Mismatched quotes "Yours, etc., "EUGENIO."
Page 345: "Gave Mr. Ashwell 2 : 6." [2 shillings and sixpence].
The illustration on page 362 has been replaced by a much higher quality, although slightly cropped, copy.
The illustration on page 187 and 391 have been replaced by a much higher quality copies.
There are many occasions when the term 'l.' or 'li.' is used. 'l.' or 'li.' = libra = pound/pounds. or £, so, £140 = 140 l. or 140 li.
Page 336: "cortége" is an old spelling (in use until the end of the 19th century.
