References

page 700 note 1 The general excellence of the printing is unfortunately somewhat marred by a number of misprints in the English text, e.g. (uncorrected in the corrigenda), I. viii, 4 f. b identified; I. xlix, note 1. 2 equated; I. xlix, note 1. 3 people; I. 4. 11 f. b. futher; I. 14, 4 f. b. inamimate; I. 445, heading, op (= up); the last error is particularly unfortunate as it is in clarendon. Even the most careful proof-reading can hardly eliminate all the errors of this type, many of which are obviously due to the compositor's native language being Norwegian and not English.
