There were several section numbers referred to in the text which were missing. Where possible, these have been added (delimited by square brackets), based on the Greek edition of Bekker (1826), which the author used as the basis for his translation.

At 288.7, an closing single quotation mark has no obvious opening.

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.
