{Transcriber's Note: Obvious typos, printing errors and mis-spellings
have been corrected, but spellings have not been modernized. Footnotes
follow immediately the paragraph in which they are noted. In Chapter
XV, eighth paragraph, second last line, "His" changed to "his" in the
sentence "Happy thoughts, not fears, hold his eyes waking" to agree
with the author's obvious reference to David rather than to God.}
