    The ground of that appeal is God's own stated will, cited back to Him. Who wilt have all men to be saved (1 Timothy ii. 4) and who wilt have no man perish (2 Peter iii. 9) are set as a pair — two declarations of what God wills, entered as evidence against His justice and in favour of His mercy. The line above them is the disciples' carest thou not that we perish?, printed under Marc. iv. 28; the verse is iv. 38, and the volume cites it rightly at printed 286 and again at 294. Kept as printed, the third such figure in two leaves.

    my leanness, my leanness, woe unto me

  • Is. xxiv. 16printed 376. 2identified

    The volume's own earlier page is the key to this unmarked one. Ariditas mea, ariditas mea! væ mihi! is the shape of Isaiah's my leanness, my leanness, woe unto me, with the book's own noun set into it — and printed 335 is where that noun was fastened to that verse, in a brace reading woe is me { for my dryness, [Is. xxiv. 16] / for my hardness of heart, / for the drought of my eyes, [Jer. ix. 1] }. Two of the three come back on this leaf with no reference at all — the dryness here, the fountain of tears eight lines down. A concordance made from the plate's marks would join neither.

    This is the reference the volume elsewhere gets wrong, and here it is right. *Job* xiv. 4 — who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? — stands correctly on this page; at printed 406, where Part III makes its own confession out of the same material, the plate prints *Job.* xiv. 14, which is if a man die, shall he live again? Both stand as printed and neither is mended. The corroborating witness is the book itself, which is worth more than any conjecture, and it is now the fourth such case — with Is. xxxiii. 15 against §37's xxxviii. 15, Psal. cxxx. 30 against printed 297's cxxx. 3, and printed 25 confirming the reading at 409.

    The volume proves another of its own misprints, and this is the fourth time. Here *Psal.* cxxx. 3 is cited correctly for if thou shouldest mark iniquities; at printed 40 the same verse is cited *Psal.* cxxx. 30, in a psalm that has eight verses. Both stand as printed. The pattern is now well established — printed 25 confirming the reading at 409, §17 confirming Job. xiv. 4 against Part III's xiv. 14, §37 confirming Is. xxxviii. 15 — and it is worth more than any conjecture, because the corroborating witness is the book itself.

  • Is. xxxviii. 15printed 371. 13

    The second twin of §37, and it differs from its Part II fellow twice over. The chapter figure reads Is. xxxiii. 15 — he that walketh righteously, which is the opposite of what the line wants. The verse is Hezekiah's, Isaiah xxxviii. 15, and printed 372–373 cites it rightly. And the sentence itself has changed. Both recensions turn the Vulgate's cum ipse fecerit — when He hath done it — into fecerim, when I have; but §37 stammers it, fecerim, fecerim, fecerim, three times and with no object, where here it is said once and given one: cum ipse hæc fecerim. Where Part II could not get past the word, Part III names the thing done. Neither recension is conformed to the other, and the triple stands as a triple there.
