Transcriber's note:

Obvious punctuation errors were corrected.

Breaks in the text were represented in three different ways
in the original: a blank space, a line of dots, and a line
of stars. The blank space has been replaced by a line of
hyphens, the line of dots by addition signs, and the stars
by asterisks.
