“In the text I have generally taken Jahn for my guide, and have also unsparingly removed whatever might tend to make Juvenal less readable in a lecture-room. On this point some may, perhaps, think that I have gone too far. But my own experience as an instructor is entirely in favour of the plan which I have adopted…”

1872 edition.

“As for the text adopted, it is that approved of by Hermann, and the only omissions or expurgations which have been made have been dictated by the wish to present the student, whether in the college lecture-room or the schoolroom, with a version available for the purpose of continuous translation without interruption or hitch. It is believed that tutors and schoolmasters will at once appreciate and approve the motives which in this matter have directed the editor.”
