"The legends have been rearranged from their original sequence, with similar themes grouped together. The original text has bene rpreserved with just a few exceptions where wording or punctuation has been changed to conform to modern usage. The most notable are in 'The bunny' and 'The harvest dance' where the term 'redskin' has been replaced."--Introduction.
