This is a scholarly translation of the "nouvello Edition" (1829), q. v. Says the translator: 

 "An imm.iculatc book is perhaps rather to bo wished for than expected, and that errors should 

 have crept into the R6gne Animal is not at all surprising. These I have endeavoured to cor- 

 rect, not by erasure or altering the text (those cases ahviiys excepted where the mistake was 

 evidently and purely typographic.il), but by note, either on the page itself or in the appendix. 

 Thus, whatever has been added, nothing has been takeu away, and the text of my author 

 remains as I found it" (pp. v, vi). [759-)
