[This e-text comes in two forms: Latin-1 and ASCII-7. Download the one
that works best on your text reader.

--In the Latin-1 version, names like "Aide" and words like "naivete"
have accents, and "ae" is a single letter. If any part of this paragraph
displays as garbage, try changing your text reader's "character set" or
"file encoding". If that doesn't work, proceed to:

--The ASCII-7 or rock-bottom version. All essential text will still be
there; it just won't be as pretty.

Spacing of contractions such as _I 've_ follows the original.]

The minutes fledged with music'."
