Excerpt from A Treatise on the Greek Prepositions, and on the Cases of Nouns With Which These Are Used
In conclusion, the author submits the work to the candid judgment of the reader, asking a liberal indulgence for the many imperfections which it will doubtless be found to have. Some of these, he may be pardoned for saying, may justly be charged to the necessity of preparing the work at such intervals of time only as could be spared from the daily burden of exhausting labor. Others may not unfairly be referred to the nature of the subject, demanding as it does for its perfect exhibition, not only an amount of patient and attentive consideration that leisurely study alone can afford, but a degree of nice discrimination and of sound judgment to which the writer cannot pretend to lay claim. But, however this may be, it is due to himself to say that he has not set down any doctrine without having weighed it as careihlly as he could, nor without a full conviction of its truth. Where he had doubts remaining, he has not failed to express them.
