would have me tread, should speak
of him with loathing, as something un.

him, too, from the standpoint of woman,

beings by their large worth TO the world,
rather than by their individual foibes.
The judgment of the moment is seldom
sane one or a just one. Wilde might
have been obliterated from the world of
literature. and his books placed on the
index expurgatorious IL the decision lay
with the people of England in the days OF
his trial. Sheridan, by some standards,
