404 ST. MARK’S, VENICE

Second Edition (1880).-To this a Postscript (here pp. 416-423) was added, pp. 9-15. Page 16 was headed “Present State of Subscription List,” but otherwise left blank-a printer’s error, mistaken by some readers for a piece of dry humour. Ruskin made a few more alterations in the text (see below).

Third Edition (1880).-This was a reprint of the Second, the error on p. 16 being corrected, and the page being blank, with the exception of the imprint at the foot.

The Circular in its complete form was reprinted in Arrows of the Chace, 1880, vol. i. pp. 237-251.

Varić Lectiones.-§ 3, line 5, see p. 413 n.; line 25, “Pan-droseion” was misprinted “Pan-choreion” in the first issue of ed. 1; § 5, line 3, for “state,” ed. 1 (both issues) reads “mind”; and for “have become, in some measure, able,” “have qualified myself”; line 6, for “am at this moment aided,” ed. 1 (both issues) reads “am asked, and enabled to do so.” In § 13, line 23, “on paper” has here been corrected to “in paper.”

The paragraphs are here numbered for convenience of reference.]
