Examples
“Paleography might teach⟳ men to read⟳ documents, diplomatics to date⟳ them and to test⟳ their authenticity; but the full significance of an ancient deed might easily escape⟳ the most exact paleographer and the most accomplished diplomatist, for the want⟳ of that finished sense⟳ for legal technicality which is the natural fruit of a conveyancing practice.”
“Finally Mark⟳ reports Christ as saying, after his resurrection, that those who believe⟳ in him will be saved and those who do not, damned; but it is impossible to discover⟳ whether he means anything by a state of damnation beyond a state of error. The paleographers regard this passage as tacked on by a later scribe. On the whole Mark⟳ leaves the modern reader where Matthew left him.”
