Transcriber's Notes:
Numbers (Roman and Arabic) in square brackets, [29], in the right margin represent original manuscript pages.
Letters in Square brackets, [AB], represent a link to a footnote located at the end of the book.
m̄ and n̄ sometimes are used to represent a double letter.
16li. represents 16 pounds in monetary terms. The original manuscript used a middle dot before and after the numbers, but this publisher used only a single period/stop after the number.
The 'li' appears to mean libra and in this book the 'l' is crossed with a middle bar or stroke. It was very difficult to represent in a Latin-1 text, so 'li' must suffice.
Most often y, such as ye, represents a thorn and the word is 'the'. Sometimes you will encounter the actual word 'the'.
This book is composed of many letters written by a number of authors and each writer uses their own spellings and abbreviations, which was common for the time in which they were written.
Spelling is inconsistent and is left unchanged from the original printing of this book.
