Transcriber's note:

      Text enclosed by underscores is in italics (_italics_).

      A carat character is used to denote superscription. A
      single character following the carat is superscripted
      (example: D^o). Multiple superscripted characters are
      enclosed by curly brackets (example: 15^{inch}).
