Note:
Scattered throughout the text are notes
explaining how various parts of the original document have been superseded, modified, restricted, or replaced
by amendment. The amendments have reciprocal notes explaining which parts of the original version each effects.
Both type of notes are links.
For example Article I, section 3, clause 1, has a note explaining that certain words
in it are "superseded" by the first clause of the 17th Amendment.
