The Works of Voltaire, Vol. IV of XLIII. Romances, Vol. III of III, and A Treatise on Toleration. · Voltaire
TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES
Original printed spelling and grammar are retained, with a few exceptions noted below. Small caps are changed to all capital letters. Italics _look like this_. The original page numbers have been removed. The four illustrations were originally printed full page, with their captions printed alone on an adjacent page. In this edition, the captions are combined appropriately with the illustrations, which are moved to locations near their original locations, but between paragraphs of text. Scans of the original book may be found at archive.org—search for “worksofvoltaire04voltiala”. There were seventy level-one footnotes, some extending over several pages, and nine level-two footnotes anchored within level-one footnotes. The level-one footnotes were renumbered, and are moved to the ends of their two sections—_Dialogue Between Madame de Maintenon and Mdlle. de l’Enclos_ and _A Treatise on Toleration_. The nested footnotes remain near their anchors. Page 229: A matching right double quotation mark was added to the phrase _“as God being their King, and exercising justice immediately upon them, according to their transgression or obedience, found it not necessary to reveal to them a doctrine which He reserved for after-times, when He should no longer so directly govern His people_.
