Transcriber’s Note

On p. 16, a reference to endnote 61 should have been endnote 62. That was been corrected.

On pp. 402-403, an extended Italian quote includes line breaks that disrupt words without benefit of hyphenation. Since the translator claims to reproduce the 1528 Aldine edition "line for line", those breaks are retained.

line 9 : e tempo era il [letto], line 19: che fosse [stato] line 23: & [graue]: (for modern "grave") line 39: come se fusse stato [all’opiato] (for modern "oppiato") line 40: [Veramente] line 44: che si [scriue] (for modern "scrive") line 45: gran prezzo per una [notte], line 46: Rideasi [tutta].

Other errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original.
