On up Madison Avenue past Twenty-eighth Street is a brownstone dwelling with a luxuriantly blooming window garden, where James Lane Allen lives when he is in town and revises his writings. A few steps into the next thoroughfare the Little Church Around the Corner nestles in a populous district, and in the next block, just beyond the Woman's Hotel, Mrs.
"Isn't it perfectly lovely, Margaret dear?" she said. "It is most interesting, my dear child," replied Margaret. Annie went on eagerly with the details of her triumph, the book sales which increased every week, the revises, the letters from her publishers, and Margaret listened smiling in spite of her torture, but she never said more than "How interesting."
All progress involves disagreeable necessities." Mrs. Wade was looking about the room, smiling, absent. She rose abruptly. "I mustn't spoil your one quiet evening. How do the proofs go on?" "Would you care to take a batch of them?" asked Quarrier. "These are revises you might be able to make a useful suggestion." She hesitated, but at length held out her hand.
M. Zola has retained possession of the MSS. of almost every work written by him, and I know that these MSS. often differ largely from the books actually given to the world. The 'copy' is not only extremely clear, but remarkably free from erasures and interpolations. But when his first proofs reach him M. Zola revises them with the greatest care.
After that I remember we fell talking of the discipline of the Rule, of the Courts that try breaches of it, and interpret doubtful cases for, though a man may resign with due notice and be free after a certain time to rejoin again, one deliberate breach may exclude a man for ever of the system of law that has grown up about such trials, and of the triennial council that revises and alters the Rule.
An act of justice is surely not the less praiseworthy because it is an act of justice done to one's self. My father has often told me that he revises his writings on religious subjects. I may harmlessly imitate that good example, by revising my restored entry. It is now a sufficiently remarkable performance to be distinguished by a title. Let me call it: Impressions of Miss Jillgall.
The suppression of most of Herr Hoffmann's speech in the Prussian Diet in January, 1917, is another important case in point. This is in striking contrast to the British Parliament, which is supreme, and over whose reports the Press Bureau has no control. The German Press Bureau, on the other hand, revises and even suppresses the publication of speeches.
Erasmus at Louvain, 1517 He expects the renovation of the Church as the fruit of good learning Controversy with Lefèvre d'Étaples Second journey to Basle, 1518 He revises the edition of the New Testament Controversies with Latomus, Briard and Lee Erasmus regards the opposition of conservative theology merely as a conspiracy against good learning
It was awful to think that perhaps it might be the other way about: she might die first, and the child might be left to starve beside her. The morrow would be Christmas Day. Last Christmas Day she had spent with her dead sister at Birmingham. She remembered that they went to church in the morning, and after dinner she had finished correcting the last revises of "Jemima's Vow."
For example, ‘English Bards and Scotch Reviewers’ grew out of the ‘British Bards,’ while ‘The Giaour,’ by constant additions to the manuscript, the proofs, and even to the work after publication, was expanded to nearly twice its original size. . . . When the inspiration was on him, the printer had to be kept at work the greater part of the night, and fresh ‘copy’ and fresh revises were crossing one another hour by hour.”
