[Transcriber's Note:

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 between braces:

[-a], [a:], [-e], [-I], [-o], [-U] ("long" vowels)
[)a], [)e], [)i], [)oo] ("short" vowels)

The "flat" symbol is shown as {b}. Sharps are shown with the "number"
sign #.

In the printed text, all musical references--including single notes
showing pitch--were shown on a musical staff. In this e-text, these
brief passages are shown in brackets as [Music: e' e''], where c'-c''
is the octave beginning at middle C. Durations are not significant
and have generally been omitted.

Within illustrations, text in {braces} was added by the transcriber.
Typographical errors are listed at the end of the e-text.]
