Transcribers notes:
i) This transcript retains the original spelling,
except for the obsolete "long ess" character
which has been replaced by 's' throughout.
Spellings of proper names tend to be phonetic
and
haphazard. Eg Pensanz, Pensans, Pensants,
Pensance, and
Penzance are all the same place.
ii) The Latin is worse than the English. I am
99.9% certain that I have transcribed it correctly,
the doubt being where the printer has randomly
mixed the "long ess" and "f" characters & neither
form is in my Collin's Little Gem Latin Dictionary.
iii) This transcript omits the original pagenumbering from the introduction and appendix,
but retains it in the main text to support cross-
referencing and the index.
Each double-page spread was given a single
page number.
I have given these in []s at the beginning of
the left-
hand page.
iv) Marginalia have been inserted into the text
surrounded
by []s
v) Footnotes have been placed beneath the
sections to
which they refer.
vi) Italics, which Carew uses heavily, have been
mostly
removed, but sometimes replaced with
quotes.
vii) The original capitalisation & over-punctuation is
retained.
