About the online edition.
This was scanned from the 1901 edition and mechanically
checked against a commercial copy of the Republic from CDROM.
Differences were corrected against the paper edition. The
text itself is thus a highly accurate rendition.
This text is in the PUBLIC DOMAIN, released August 1993.
Ron Grande and Bill Uzgalis did the hypertext markup version in
October 1997.
