The following Lectures are printed; as far as possible; just as they were delivered. Here and there a sentence which seemed obscure has been mended; and the passages which had not been previously written; have been; of course imperfectly; supplied from memory. But I am well assured that nothing of any substantial importance which was said in the lecture-room; is either omitted; or altered in its signification; with the exception only of a few sentences struck out from the notice of the works of Turner; in consequence of the impossibility of engraving the drawings by which they were illustrated; except at a cost which would have too much raised the price of the volume. Some elucidatory remarks have; however; been added at the close of the second and fourth Lectures; which I hope may be of more use than the passages which I was obliged to omit.
