Transcriber's Note:
A List of Contents has been added by the transcriber, and placed in the Public Domain.
The original page headings are of interest, so they have been retained, in the online version, and moved to appropriate positions in the right-hand margin, close to the text to which they refer, so as not to interrupt the flow of the text.
The book contains some foreign words and a few old spellings, e.g., 'authour', 'tenour', etc., and also instances of hyphenated and non-hyphenated variants of some words. These have all been retained.
Instances of both 'adhaesit' and 'adhæsit' appear in the text. Both have been retained.
Punctuation is not always consistent. Some punctuation has been amended for conformity; sundry missing or damaged punctuation has been repaired.
