Page 214 — “pharmacopœa” changed to “pharmacopœia” (of our pharmacopœia)
In anatomical references, the book uses “chord” throughout in place of “cord” — see for example “umbilical chord” and “spermatic chord”.
There are seventy-nine treatment recipes/formulæ (“Forms”) in the book. All are printed in a similar style. However fifty-five appear as footnotes while the rest appear in page text. For ease of reference in the transcription, all the footnoted Forms have been gathered together and moved to a new FORMULÆ annex at the end of the book. Minor changes to the page text consequent on the new arrangement are as follows:
Page 31 — “[See annexed Formulæ 2, 3, 4, 5.]” changed to “[See Forms 2, 3, 4, 5 in Formulæ annex.]”
Page 33 — “Subjoined are” changed to “See Formulæ annex for”
Page 34 — “(see note)” changed to “(see Formulæ annex)”
While the original style and content of the seventy-nine Forms has been carefully preserved, minor corrections to the layout of some have been made so that all are displayed to the reader in a consistent format. This avoids small but distracting variations on a page that look like errors in transcription. For the same reason, variations in the spelling of dosage measures in the Forms have been regularised. Thus “table spoonful”, “table-spoonful” and “tablespoonful” all appear as “tablespoonful”. Similarly for “teaspoonful” and “wineglassful”. Plural forms have been changed in the same way. For consistency, the regularising of these words has also been applied to their appearance elsewhere in the body text.
Ordinary footnotes have been re-indexed using numbers and moved to a FOOTNOTES section placed after the FORMULÆ annex.
References on a page to originally footnoted Forms are now clickable links to their text in the new FORMULÆ annex. Ordinary footnote references on a page are now clickable links to their text in the FOOTNOTES section.
