This edition, perhaps in a later printing, is the unstated source for Project Gutenberg Ebook #10430 (see) --evidently from examination of the notes. Namely, Francklin's unnumbered footnotes are displayed as endnotes in the ebook, numbered 17 to 190 by reference to page numbers in this edition. Francklin's notes are listed separately below, as "Notes" at the end of the Contents list, but in this edition they are footnotes to the translated text, pp. 5-192.
