From p. 182 onwards I have merely added to the notes of the first edition a portion of the materials amassed during the last twenty years.

To have searched through the whole of my collections, or to have changed the form of the notes, would have required more leisure than I have had at command.

By Easter 1873 I hope to issue the remainder of the commentary, in which sat. X is treated as fully as sat. I.

I propose ultimately to bring out also a critical edition of the 16 satires, with an explanatory commentary on sat. II. VI. IX. and to enlarge the commentary on the remaining satires on one uniform scale.
