Excerpt from Cambridge Staircase

The English is loose in places: I hope, however, that the sense is. Clear enough to convey what is intended, and that is more than can always, I think, be said of some even of the anti-posthumous works Of the present day; and there are one or two Cambridge expressions which are fallacious: these last are purely printer's errors, and the assistance Of a Cambridge man, if he is anywhere about, must be called in to set them right. There are, too, passages in the book which I should have preferred to have altered altogether, for reasons which my more intimate friends will understand, and which have arisen since the sketches were originally written these must be read by those friends with mercy, and they must not judge me by them.
