HEREIN IS APPENDED AN index of those terms appearing in this fifth volume of Lord Marlowe’s manuscript which are not easily translated into the Classical English, or which bear a specific technical or cultural definition requiring clarification in the opinion of the translator. For a more complete explanation of the methodology employed in devising these coinages for this translation, please refer to the appendices in volume one.
