[This text is intended for users whose text readers cannot use the
"real" (Unicode/UTF-8) version of the file. Characters that could not
be fully displayed have been "unpacked" and shown in brackets:

  [s] (long s; bracketed [s] does not occur)
  [-a] [-i] [-p] (letters with overlines and similar diacritics)
  [m-p] pair of letters with shared overline

These characters occur only in quoted material. Greek has been
transliterated and shown with #marks#.

Footnotes have been numbered continuously within each chapter. Monograms
and similar symbols are shown in the text with [[double brackets]].

There is no table of contents, but the List of Illustrations gives the
same information.]
