BEAVER

Transcriber’s Note

Each illustration of a beard originally faced the beard’s description. These have been moved to follow the title of the type of beard.

Footnotes have been moved to the end of the paragraph to which they refer.

Variant spelling and inconsistent hyphenation are retained.

Minor changes have been made to make punctuation consistent.


With respectful affection to the illustrious memory of Shagpat, the son of Shimpoor, the son of Shoolpi, the son of Shullum.
