ERRATA. The Reader is requested to make the following corrections: Vol. I., p. 16 n. For "Pantisocrasy" read Pantisocracy. P. 340. The reference to the note belongs to the line preceding. P. 220. Note. For 1836, read 1834. Vol. II., p. 188. Note. For "Intruding Widow" substitute "John Woodvil." P. 198. Dele reference. P. 212. Dele second reference. Vol. III., p. 436, after the note on "Birth and Feeling," add: Age or length of service." Here was a note : Mrs. Inchbald seems to have fallen into the common mistake of the character in some otherwise sensible observations on this comedy. "It might be asked," she says, "whether this credulous steward was much deceived in imputing a degraded taste, in the sentiments of love, to his fair lady Olivia, as she actually did fall in love with a domestic, and one who, from his extreme youth, was perhaps a greater reproach to her discretion than had she cast a tender regard upon her old and faithful servant." But where does she gather the fact of his age? Neither Maria nor Fabian ever cast reproach upon him. |
