Transcriber's note:

      Text enclosed by underscores is in italics (_italics_).

      Text enclosed by equal signs is in bold face (=bold=).

      A carat character is used to denote superscription. A
      single character following the carat is superscripted
      (example: y^e). Multiple superscripted characters are
      enclosed by curly brackets (example: w^{ch}).

      A letter with a macron accent (straight line over the
      letter) is enclosed by square brackets and preceded by
      an equal sign; for example, a "d" with a macron is
      signified by [=d].

      A letter with a tilde character above it is enclosed by
      square brackets and preceded by a tilde; for example, an
      "m" with a tilde is signified by [~m].

      The OE-ligature is represented by [OE].

      The letters "u" and "v" are mostly interchanged; as, e.g.,
      "in haruest time" and "vnder a bridge".

      Some of the spelling is very old, and often phonetic (they
      wrote as they heard it spoken
