** Transcriber's Notes **
The printed edition from which this e-text has been produced retains
the spelling and abbreviations of Hakluyt's 16th-century original. In
this version, the spelling has been retained, but the following
manuscript abbreviations have been silently expanded:
- vowels with macrons = vowel + 'n' or 'm' - q; = -que (in the Latin) -
y[e] = the; y[t] = that; w[t] = with
This edition contains footnotes and two types of sidenotes. Most
footnotes are added by the editor. They follow modern (19th-century)
spelling conventions. Those that don't are Hakluyt's (and are not always
systematically marked as such by the editor). The sidenotes are
Hakluyt's own. Summarizing sidenotes are labelled [Sidenote: ] and
placed before the sentence to which they apply. Sidenotes that are
keyed with a symbol are labeled [Marginal note: ] and placed at the
point of the symbol, except in poetry, where they are moved to the
nearest convenient break in the text.
