Words that were hyphenated at the ends of line have been joined with or without the hyphen, depending on the frequency of the word's spelling elsewhere. No attempt was made to regularize other cases. They are kept as printed.
Characters that have been removed, corrected, or which have been added are noted using [] as delimiters. Where misprinted characters are changed, the original and corrected characters are noted as [x/y], where x is the original. Punctuation corrections are not included in this list.
