    It should be noted that text 349 in DE (not included in the bibliography) is a different version of OT-81-06

      Daniel, Thank you for this careful detail work. In checking this, I also discovered that OT-81-05 is in fact DE 359. That, too, will be corrected in the next edition.

      Daniel, I am unable to access vol. 2—I only have access to vol. 1. Is it possible for you to provide me a scan of the translation (as well as title page, table of contents, other relevant pages)? Or at least fuller bibliographical details, so that I can update the bibliography in the meantime? Thank you!

    hi, Clare. I have another note. In the bibliography, text 344 is referred to text 326, which is an earlier version. However, those two versions are significantly different. I wonder if 344 has ever been translated into English. Thanks!
