In "Egbert Rydings" account, under January 1, 1877, "Guy" was misprinted "Gay" in ed 1. At the end of the "Notes and Correspondence "there was the following: "ERRATUM.-In Fors of December last, p. 381, for xxiii. read xxxiii." (see Vol. XXVIII. p. 759). The mistake was corrected in ed. 3 of Letter 72. Letter 75, § 2, line 8, "melons" has hitherto been misprinted 66 lemons." § 9, the last word in the quotation from Cheney is here "permitted" (as in Cheney) instead of "allowed" (in previous editions). See also p. 65 n. § 10, line 15, "Couttet" was misprinted "Contet” in ed. 1 and “Coutet' afterwards. § 12, line 2, quæso" is here a correction for "queso"; line 9, "87th" Psalm is here a correction for "86th." § 14, footnote, "Edward has hitherto been misprinted "Edwards." § 21 (line 16 of p. 78 here), the word "Free" before "Church" is here omitted; Ruskin wrote it in error-the Act to which the letter refers was concerned with the Established Church. Letter 76, § 1, line 28, "or" before "householder" in ed. 1, afterwards corrected to "nor." § 15, line 5, "£2200” is the author's correction for "£1200." § 18, line 20, "for" is here inserted after "preparing." Letter 77, § 3, line 32, the commas before and after "following" (important for the sense) are now inserted in accordance with a note in Ruskin's copy. Letter 78, § 7, lines 19-21, the text has hitherto read: "No. 10, which is of a door of St. Mark's, with two prophets bearing scrolls, in the midst of vineleaf ornament on each side, and look . . ." The corrections now made are from Ruskin's copy. So in § 8, "The two northern" and "The two southern" are his corrections for "Northern" and "Southern"; and "in No. 11" is his insertion in line 12. Letter 79, note (h), see p. 155 n. Letter 80, § 8, dots are here introduced in the first passages from Plato, to mark where Ruskin passes from 698 B to 699 C. § 9, line 11, at the word "translation" there was in all the octavo editions an asterisk with the following footnote appended :— * "Rock Honeycomb cost me and my printers' best reader more than usual pains to get into form: some errata have, nevertheless, escaped us both; of which 'fully' for 'full,' in line 114, as spoiling a pretty stanza, and 106' for '166,' in page 62, as causing some inconvenience, had better be at once corrected. It is also the hundred and first, not the fifty-first psalm whose rhythm is analyzed at page xliii. of the Preface." These corrections are made in Rock Honeycomb as printed in this edition (Vol. XXXI.). Letter 81, § 10, third line from end, "Grey" hitherto is a misprint for "Guy" (corrected by Ruskin in his copy). Letter 82, § 2, the reference to Müller's Dorians is here corrected from "ch. ii. 99 to "ch. xi.," and in the extract "Eolic" is a correction for "Eolic." § 10, author's footnote, "subject of much" is here a correction for "much subject of." § 15, author's footnote, line 5, has hitherto been in all editions "must be read now, though I'm terribly sorry to give it only in small print. It must not have small print . . ."; altered by Ruskin in his copy as in the present text. It is strange that the correction should not have been made by his proof-readers, for the passage was given in large print. Ruskin obviously changed his mind in the course of writing the note, and forgot to strike out the words "I'm terribly sorry," etc. § 17, line 20, and § 19, fifth line from end, ed. 1 and the Small Edition "Dionysus"; misprinted "Dionysius in ed. 2. § 19, note (IV.), line 2, "peoples" in ed. 1. § 20, last line but one, "to" before "be" is omitted as marked by Ruskin in his copy. § 23, line 4, "person" has hitherto been misprinted for "power." § 24, author's footnote, "Blachford" is here a correction for "Blackford." § 33, "Schwab" has hitherto been misprinted "Schawb."

Letter 87, § 1, line 9, "the "is Ruskin's correction in his copy for "these," and ed. 1 reads "nor is it possible." § 2, line 26, "Winny" is here altered to "Winnie" (to correspond with the spelling of the name in Castle Blair). § 4, line 23, "and" is similarly his insertion; and so also "following" in § 7, line 24. In § 13, line 5, the punctuation now given is in accordance with Ruskin's correction; the passage has hitherto been printed "I am myself so nearly, as you are so grievously faithless § 13, line 35, "and" was misprinted "add" in the third and small editions. § 14, line 10, "of" misprinted "or" in ed. 3. § 15, line 11, "Parizade" was misprinted "Pairzael" in ed. 1; line 17 from end, "worked" was misprinted "wroked" in ed. 1; Ruskin in his copy changed the "worked" of later editions into "wrought." ...

Letter 89, § 1, lines 6-9, the brackets are inserted in accordance with Ruskin's copy. § 2, line 2, " silence hitherto" is his correction for "hitherto silence." § 7, the last word "nations" is here substituted in accordance with Hartwig's text for "governments." § 8, line 18, "these" is his correction for "their." § 10, line 6, "while" is his correction for "and." § 13, line 19, the word "is" has now been inserted after "in which." § 14, line 26, the word "getting" is here inserted. § 18, line 20, ❝industrious" was misprinted "industries" in ed. 3.

The account of "The Mother of the Orphans" was reprinted with some revisions in Part III. of Christ's Folk in the Apennine (1887). The revisions have been followed in the text given in this volume. They are (in addition to minor matters of punctuation) as follows: In lines 8 and 9, Fors reads "the contemplative side of such a life." On page 520, the notes * and † were not given in Christ's Folk; lines 10, 11, 28 and 29, the italics were added in Christ's Folk; page 521, line 6, Fors reads "at" for "on," and in line 12, "the room" for "a room"; line 26, Fors adds "leave it" after "do."
