Transcriber’s Notes

In cases where it is not clear whether a stanza break occurred across a page break, this edition follows the stanza breaks in the first edition of 1817. Obvious typographical errors such as missing or mismatched quotation marks were fixed on pages 77, 134, 183, 186, 342, 364, and 371, and the use of small caps in apostrophized words has been silently standardized. Other inconsistencies in spelling, hyphenation, etc. have not been corrected except as noted below.

The formatting of the endnotes in the printed edition varies. In this edition missing punctuation has been supplied and centered text has been left justified, but paragraph breaks have not been standardized. The page numbers given are those in the printed edition.

Images have been moved to natural breaks in the printed text; however, the printed page numbers in the Table of Illustrations have not been changed.

The illustrated title-page for the fourth section contains the drawn text “The Light of the Harem;” however, in the Table of Contents and in the story itself, the word is spelled “Haram.”

Itemized changes from the original text:

p. xvi: Changed “aquaintance” to “acquaintance” in “a hasty renewal of my acquaintance with it.”

p. xvii n. iii: Changed “Jansenistes” to “jansénistes” in French quotation.

p. xxiii: Changed “Peri” to “Péri” in French quotation.

p. 9: Added missing endnote reference 25 to poem title.

p. 91: Changed “half way” to “half-way” in “souls but half-way curst”.

p. 212: Changed “e’er” to “ere” in “ere a drop of this night’s gore”.

p. 218: Removed comma after “keen” from “With that keen second-scent of death”.

p. 230 and note 255: Changed “dark-sea robber’s way” to “dark sea-robber’s way.”

p. 251: Supplied missing indentation to match other public domain editions.

p. 334 n. 15: Changed “Hindostan” to “Hindoostan” in citation.

p. 355: Corrected endnote number from 131 to 181.

p. 366 n. 266: Changed “Bidmusk” to “Bid-musk” in head quote to match main text; left as “Bidmusk” in quotation from cited text.

p. 368 n. 279: Changed “lightning gem” to “lightning-gem” to match main text.

p. 371 n. 310: Changed “durée” to “duré” and “apperçût” to “apperçut” in French quotation.

p. 375: Corrected endnote number from 44 to 344.

p. 379 n. 371: Changed “Symez” to “Symes”.

p. 381 n. 386: Corrected nested quotation marks in endnote 386.
