Transcriber’s Notes:
The original accentuation, spelling and hyphenation has been retained.
Notes, originally in the margin, relating to dates have been indented into the main text aligned as closely as possible to the U.C. (ab urbe condita) dates in the text to which they refer.
Similar notes originally in the margins, relating to other works, have also been indented into the text.
A link to the maps has been added to the Table of Contents.
