TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES
Reading edition
The title page is used as a cover.
Chapter numbering continues from the previous volume.
Page numbers are given in {curly} brackets.
Plain text version only: endnote markers are given in [square] brackets; table rows are separated by “===” with each cell on its own line.
Minor spelling inconsistencies (e.g. by-and-bye/by and bye, folktales/folk-tales, panjâb/panjáb, etc.) have been preserved.
Some instances of “Siddhi-Kür” in the source text have a circumflex over the ü. As this character doesn’t appear to be available in the utf-8 codeset, it has been left with just the diaeresis.
Alterations to the text:
Convert footnotes to endnotes. Relabel note markers: append the original note number to the page number.
Add endnotes entry to TOC.
Omit the Index and adjust the TOC accordingly.

Move the LOW to the end of the main text and adjust the TOC accordingly.
