I do not pretend to have treated those aspects exhaustively, however. I wish to express my gratitude to the editors of Mnemosyne for accepting the resulting manuscript as volume 38 in their series of Supplements. Thanks, too, are due to Professor R.E.H. Westendorp Boerma for his criticism and suggestions.
