Translator of Book II/ Chapter XII not Cotton?[edit]

I am at a loss to understand the note that precedes the text of this chapter, to wit, that the translation is by John Florio rather than Charles Cotton. I have examined a copy of the text cited, Hazlitt's edition of 1877, and the chapter is certainly included. How was it "not found?" Furthermore, it is not the text given in Wikisource but a more recent translation than Florio, I'm rather sure. Help, someone! GianniBGood (talk) 14:45, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
