Notes: "I hope I have not spoiled the dear, delightful old Don, by cutting out some of the tediousness of his biographer ... Jarvis's translation is the one that has been used for my purpose.  And I have only to add that I have scrupulously retained the original, homely, vigorous diction of that best presentation to English readers, of the marvelous creation of Cervantes."--Preface.
