Preface

Footnotes have been collected at the end of the text, and are linked for ease of reference. Illustrations have been moved to fall on paragraph breaks.

There are a number of musical scores in the text, which appear here as images, with the lyrics given after each line. These are repeated in a light green block, including hyphens to render the phrasing. Several of the songs are followed by the complete lyrics as poetry.

The front cover, which had only an embossed decoration, has been augmented with information from the title page, and, as such, is added to the public domain.
