A note on the text

The scanned copy is identical with the one in Cambridge University Library, which is stamped “22 Dec 85” and is therefore the first edition. In the Cambridge copy there is a printed slip with the following corrections. Since these are presumably the author’s own, they have been made in the scanned text.

ERRATA.
