seated, in plain view of all.
Transcriber's Notes:
Minor printer errors (omitted or incorrect punctuation) have been
amended without note. Minor inconsistencies in hyphenation have been
resolved where possible, or retained where there was no way to
determine which was correct, again without note. Other errors have
been amended, and are listed below.
Illustrations have been shifted slightly so that they do not fall in
the middle of paragraphs. The frontispiece illustration has been moved
to follow the title page, and the cover illustration has had the
caption from the List of Illustrations added. Minor punctuation
variations between the List of Illustrations and illustration captions
have been made consistent without note.
Some of the earlier tales use Greek mythological names, while others
use the Roman equivalent (for example, Poseidon or Neptune, Ares or
Mars). Some Greek names use a Latin spelling (for example, Thermiscira
rather than Thermiscyra), or have differing spelling in different
tales (for example Hera and Here). These have been left unchanged,
except where there was an obvious error.
OE/oe ligatures have not been retained in this version.
