Excerpt from The Silvae of Statius: Translated With Introduction and Notes
Strue or a vague paraphrase was almost irresistible. Nor do my obligations end here. Professor Hardie of Edinburgh has read through the whole, and Mr. Garrod of Merton a large part, of the translation as it passed through the press, and to both of them I am indebted for valuable suggestions and corrections; while I have also to thank my colleague, Mr. Franck Arnold of Cardifi, for many shrewd criticisms and much ungrudging assistance. For all the shortcomings in what has proved to be a difficult undertaking the responsibility rests with me alone.
