Page 3 line 7 should read – allowed to keep
Page 3 line 8 “..felt as if..” should read – felt that if
Page4 line 9 “Hiving” should read – living
Page 7 line 16 “..authors,name ..” should read – author’s name
Page 10 line 6 “..native to the Europe..” should read – native to Europe
Page 19 line 6 “vestiages” should read – vestiges
Page 58 Mortimer Common – line 23 – omission. Should read

Page 18 Whilst we are aware that there is no j in the Roman alphabet this extract was faithfully typed from Walter Money’s translation of the original.
N.B. We draw your attention to the Introduction, page7, regarding the spelling of certain words within the FD text.
