TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE 



Having found the first edition of this book of great use, I have willingly 

 undertaken the preparation of an English translation of this greatly 

 enlarged and improved second edition. I have embodied in it all the 

 additional matter contained in the Addenda to the German text, as also 

 certain modifications and additions communicated to me by Professor 

 Meyer, who, by reading the proofs, has ensured their accuracy. 



It has been no part of my intention to add any commentary upon the 

 book, but I have appended a few foot-notes that seemed advisable, and I 

 have added an Index which I hope will prove useful.
