T174. The infinitival sequence, reader/spectator and matter/subject alternatives remain. Resolution renders décision in the reading or performance context without assigning a particular plot. Both desired-goal quotations and the first-person emphasis remain. English moves the first final period and the second comma inside the closing quotation marks under American style; French keeps the outside punctuation.
T481. The initial infinitive sequence, two parenthetic alternatives and both quoted goal phrases remain, with their lower/upper initial distinction. The r of rendre and the opening parenthesis before comme are thin and abraded but retain identifiable stem/shoulder and curved-bracket contours; these readings are explicitly qualified rather than replaced by a gap solely from damage. The later point has its identifiable p stem/bowl. The semicolon, first-person perfect reminder, present dis-je and final colon/nominal fragment remain. In the French source, the terminal period is outside the first quote; the second quote is followed by a comma.
T175. All three without-measure formulations, the broad scope and dimensions/dimension/limits sequence remain. The Académie dictionary of 1798 defines the noun vivre as nourishment and pairs it with clothing in an example; the drunkards parenthesis supports the drinking application here. Eating and drinking retains this contextual interpretation; the wider manner-of-living sense remains possible. Only Note. represents the italic Latin Nota. ; the parenthesis remains main text. English uses a colon before even where French has a semicolon; the full qualification remains. The named Latin Nota. alone and its English Note., including periods, are italic, while Drunkards. remains roman.
T482. Both indented paragraphs remain one unit. Only Nota. is italic inside its roman parentheses; Yvrognes keeps capital Y and the final period. The first negative, en rien , repeated sans mesure and the three degrees of dimensions/dimension/limits remain without reconciling their numbers. The line-initial m of mesure , l of limites and d of du prince are abraded but have identifiable letter structures despite adjacent thin margin artifacts; no extra words are inferred. The second paragraph keeps both urne forms and the infinitival purpose. The final parenthetic irrigation fragment retains its printed ellipsis, with no extra closing sentence or explanation supplied.
T176. The urn is repeated, with the prince’s hands and pouring image intact. Liberty is the feminine object poured out; the infinitive’s understood agent is contextually the prince. The irrigation parenthesis and printed ellipsis remain without a supplied conclusion.
T177. The two named instruments remain a nominal pair. Barrel organ renders orgue de barbarie without taking barbarie literally as barbarism. No account of the implied comparison is added.
T483. The complete day 15 is retained with the two instruments in a nominal pair. No finite verb or external analogy is added.
T178. The nominal description, age, rank, provenance and literal name remain. No biography or military event is supplied. English lieutenant colonel uses an open rank form against the source’s lieutenant-colonel ; the literal Protopopoff is unchanged.
T484. The one-line nominal unit ends on this page. The rank has its printed hyphen, sibérien has its acute and the name retains Protopopoff without a normalized identity. Page 786 opens a new dated unit, not a continuation.
T179. Caprice reads fantaisie as an unrestrained inclination in the contrast with moderation; fancy or imagination remains a broader lexical possibility. The categorical statement is not softened.
T485. The complete date and one-sentence unit are retained. The circumflex on ôte is visible; no additional word is inferred from isolated margin noise.
T180. Show off gives the idiomatic sense of faire le beau : making a display of oneself, rather than producing beauty. The impersonal prohibition remains.
T486. The intact negative and nominal le beau remain as printed; the complete date belongs to this unit.
T181. The initial infinitive, repeated sciences and truth, and both that-is-to-say formulations remain. Looking at preserves the visual relation without substituting a philosophical system.
T182. The two infinitival directives, the sequence of words, and beginning/end relation remain. One is the ordinary English object required by dispose, not an identified hearer. Sentences renders phrazes without normalizing the French spelling.
T488. Phrazes retains z . Both opening infinitives, both relative clauses and the commencement/end relation remain. The right-edge ceux and amène retain identifiable complete letters despite adjacent reproduction traces; no extra loss is inferred.
T183. The nominal fragment remains without a supplied argument.
T489. The single nominal fragment remains a complete separate unit, with no supplied predicate.
T184. The relative fragment, past tense and spatial support image remain. No speaker or historical utterance is identified.
T490. The nominal/relative fragment retains avoient , both feminine-plural pronouns and the hyphen in toute-puissance . No main verb is supplied.
T185. The infinitival opening and repeated seriousness/gravity and jesting remain. Engages renders attache in its attentive sense; the soul and mind retain their distinction.
T186. The infinitive, attributed recommendation and three escalating quantities remain. Their refers to the collective people in the quotation. The precise source of Bonald’s words has not yet been verified; the attribution is Joubert’s. English uses the conventional Bonald spelling for the printed Bonnald, and Mr. for the raised-r title Mʳ ; the French spelling and abbreviation remain unchanged.
