Excerpt from P. Vergili Maronis Opera, Vol. 3: The Works of Virgil, With a Commentary; Containing the Last Six Books of the Aeneid
Mr. Conington's name has so long enjoyed the recognition and deep respect of the public, that the separate testimony of a single friend might seem superfluous if not affected. But, in bringing out the work to which he devoted so much of his best labour, I have been unable to refrain from thus doing something towards paying my own tribute to the memory of one with the graces of whose character and intellectual gifts an intimate friendship of several years brought me into inner and continual contact, from whom I received my first introduction to the methods of classical study, and to whose sympathy, encouragement, and guidance I in common with many others who take an interest in that study, am so deeply indebted.
