Notes:
Due to current browser limitations, certain characters in printed editions may not always be similarly displayed in the electronic version. In such cases, the following representations have been chosen for display purposes:
- characters with punctum delens or other marks indicating lenition (this applies to f, s, m and n) are displayed with following h and underlining: thus fh, sh, mh and nh
- insular ampersand (‘Tironian et’) is displayed as &
This edition incorporates textual variations between the different MSS in which the text occurs. For the mark-up of these variations, see sub heading Tags declaration below. In the HTML format, these variations are encoded as hyperlinks. Clicking the links will display the variant readings in a pop-up window.
To facilitate searching, macrons used to indicate long vowels in the printed edition have been omitted from the html display.
