The EETS book contains notations like “[leaf 4]”, which refer to the leaf in the original manuscript. These are retained. Most are inline, but a few are in the form of sidenotes, floating, for example, to the side of a text heading. Page numbers as printed in the EETS edition are shown like this: “{ xiii}” or “{ 53}”.
The EETS edition was printed with running heads, which will be termed headnotes in this discussion. Most of the original headnotes were either repetitions from previous pages, or else essentially the same as a text heading or subheading somewhere on the page in question. A few did add information to the page; these few have been retained in this ebook edition. They have been moved if necessary from the top of the page to the top of the section that they describe. The first example of an included headnote occurs on page 19.
CONTENTS. The Preface discussion of HARMAN’S _Caueat_ begins on page iv, not v.
Page vi. “Anno domini .1567” to “Anno domini. 1567”.
Page vii. In “of Rogges . . . iij”, the illegible exponent after “iij” is rendered _s_ herein.
Page viii. The abbreviation for “page” was changed from “p” to “p.” in two places.
Page ix (note). Added a matching “)” after “_Environs of London_.”.
Page xi. The marker in “therevpon† bestow” should be paired, but is not. One possibility is “†therevpon† bestow”.
Page xviii. The unbalanced left parenthesis at “(although he is bold” is retained.
Page xxi. “under theee titles” to “under these titles”.
Page xxvii and elsewhere. The DP team have done the best they could with the sometimes illegible superscripts in passages like the sixth paragraph on page xxvii.
Page xxviii. “concernyny” to “concernyng”.
Page 21. full stop removed from “exercyses. may”.
Page 27. full stop changed to comma in original “wylbe. curyous heds”. Also, “finde fauttes” changed to “finde faultes”. The odd construction “in short season a great change we see . well, this delycat” is retained, to be construed as you think best.
Page 30, and similar instances elsewhere. The first two lines of the original printed paragraph are indented 6½% and spanned by an enlarged left curly bracket “{ ” on the left side. I do not know the significance of this, and cannot herein acceptably reproduce these two lines as printed. In this DP transcription, a new right bracket “ }” is inserted to enclose the words of the two lines as printed. In the text edition, the markup “++{ ” is employed at the beginning of the paragraph, and in the html/epub/mobi editions, an image is employed, spanning the first two lines of the rewrapped paragraph.
