Stow’s Survey: Textual Note
Both Stow’s 1603 text
and
Kingford’s 1908 edition thereof
have marginal notes that function as content descriptors. The BHO transcription groups the marginalia and
displays them as in-text section headings. We have encoded these as marginalia,
locating them as close as possible to where they appear in Kingsford.
