We trust that in our edition the matter which Capell
discarded has been presented in a well-printed book. We have found
no trace of the Manuscripts here spoken of.]

[Footnote 12: In Lowndes's _Manual_ (Bohm), p. 2316, we find
'Notes and Various Readings to Shakespeare. By Edward Capell,
Lond. 1759.' No such book of this date is in the Capell
collection, nor is it ever mentioned elsewhere, so far as we know.
In the preface to the work of 1783, it is mentioned that the first
volume had been printed in 1774, but no allusion is made to any
former edition.]

[Footnote 13: These volumes, together with the whole of
Shakespeare's _Plays_ and Milton's _Paradise Lost_, written out in
Capell's own regular, but not very legible hand, are among his
collection in Trinity College Library.]

[Footnote 14: Steevens was accused of giving, under fictitious
names, notes which he was afraid to sign himself.]

[Footnote 15: The two last-named books, as well as some
suggestions from correspondents, did not reach us till the first
Volume was partly printed. We propose to supply all omissions in
an Appendix to the whole work.]

[Footnote 16: Aber man laeuft ein gefaehrliches Spiel, wenn man
nicht ueberall offen und bescheiden bekennt, dass man ganz von den
Englaendern abhange: ja man scheitert gewiss, wenn man mit der
einen Hand allen Stoff von dem man lebt und athmet ihnen entnimmt,
und mit der andern zum Dank Hohn und Beleidigung auf ihren Namen
wirft. _Vorrede_, pp. vi. vii.]

'Admirable descriptions, which place "Ravenshoe" almost in the first
