Transcriber's Note:

Two names are accented with Macrons (a short horizontal bar over the letter), for which there is no ASCII character. They are usually marked as [=e], as in Argim[=e]n[=e]s. For legibility, they have been replaced here by the bare letter. To restore the original accents,

change Oonrana to Oonr[=a]na change Argimenes to Argim[=e]n[=e]s
