Based on the PDF?

At this edit you said based on the PDF. Is the PDF available? If it is, then we could look to upload that to Commons, and do side by side proofreading which is a more accurate rendition. — billinghurst sDrewth 09:44, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

The Euser text is merely his own transcription, which I have used with the addition of footnotes and proofreading. The PDF of the original text is available on Google Books—and, of course, ideally this should be moved into that format. It's just a question of when I (or someone else?) can get around to it.
