ErrataThe following errors have been corrected or noted in the HTML version; the text version has not been altered at this time, so please note the following errata. Most of these were errors in the published edition which we used to construct the etext (the copytext). Book 1. Section CLXXVII should be CLXXVI and vice versa. This was an error in the copytext. Book 2. Section LXVII should be inserted at "Bhima said, 'O Yudhishthira, gamblers..." This was a transcription error. Book 7. The copytext omitted section breaks for LIV, LV and CLXXXIX. We believe that no actual text is missing at these points, just the section breaks, since (e.g.) CLXXXIX shows up in the page header in the copytext. Book 13. There are two sections labelled CLXVIII. The first one should be CLXIII. This was an error in the copytext. Book 14. (HTML version only) The HTML title of LXXVII was incorrectly entered as LXVIII. This was a formatting error. --February 26th, 2006 |
