instances of "Itam" spelled without a circumflex above the "I"
in contrast to numerous instances from Pg. 90 onwards where
a circumflex above the "I" is used. Changed to match the
dominant pattern. (Tungku Long, Tungku Îtam)(Tungku
Îtam, who had been watching)


Pg. 105, duplicated word "a" removed (cultivation of a pâdi
swamp)


Pg. 116, "Râja Sĭbîdi" is also spelled "Râja Sĕbidi" in two
other instances on the same page. Original text preserved in
all cases as it is unclear which the author intended.


Pg. 193, in the original text there was one instance of

the text meaning a "war-cry", which is plausible in the
context here. However, the original text has been preserved.

"whispered". The author's original text has been preserved—
the missing punctuation could have been intentional if he had,
for example, been quoting verbatim from his source. (And
whispered 'Thou thyself art Heaven or Hell.)


Pg. 255-256, poem "L'envoi". In the original text a page break
occurred after the first 16 lines of the poem. This break has
