Originally published in 1890, this FamLoc edition is a slight modification. The images have been moved to better coincide with the text, and there have been changes to format and punctuation. However, the grammar and prose has been faithfully retained, other than changes to a handful of typographical errors and the very few instances where clarity was required.
