[Transcriber's Notes]
Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this four-volume set; otherwise they were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected. Inconsistent capitalization has not been changed.
Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained.
Infrequent spelling of "Plotinus" changed to the predominant "Plotinos."
Several opening or closing parentheses and quotation marks are unmatched; Transcriber has not attempted to remedy them.
