"The work The Principal Corrections and Additions is now difficult to obtain; when it turns up it is almost invariably bound in with a copy of the first edition of the Life." Pottle p. 212. The 'gve' or 'give' question. "Of the four copies in the British Museum two have one reading and two the other. There can be little doubt that 'gve' is the earlier state. The first proof shows the word correctly spelled but the lines are punctuated as follows: 'Short O short! then be thy reign "And give us to the world again.' Boswell passed this in the proof but in the revise both proof and revise are in the possession of Mr. Adam he directed the printer to remove the exclamation point in the first line and substitute it for the first period at the end of the second which is in fact the punctuation of the printed text. When the changes were made the 'i' dropped out and the printer not noticing what had happened filled up the line by inserting a space between 'gve' and 'us'. After a considerable part of the edition had been printed the error was discovered and corrected in the press." Frederick Albert Pottle. The Literary Career of James Boswell p. 151. The correct first issue as here reads" "Short O short then be thy reign "And gve us to the world again!" Boswell's biography of Johnson is a classic of the genre-a full candid account of the life of one of the most famous eighteenth-century writers and thinkers by another. "The Life of Johnson was no single book miraculously produced by an inexperienced author. It was the crowning achievement of an artist who for more than twenty-five years had been deliberately disciplining himself for such a task" Pottle p. xxi. Courtney & Nichol Smith pp. 172-3.
