Transcriber’s Note:

Punctuation has been standardised—in particular, missing periods and quotation marks have been supplied where obviously required. Three entries in the bibliography were located out of alphabetical order, and have been moved accordingly (Fougerat, Lamb, Martin). All other original errors and inconsistencies have been retained, except as follows (the first line is the original text, the second the passage as currently stands):
