Jenny,
Having the right edition and scanning the missing
pages is much easier for me that trying to find the
missing text and probably typing it in because it
wouldn't be the exact pages, so as long as you don't
mind waiting a bit longer we'll do it that way. I'll
let you know when I have the book.
