The last word of page 4 is "unseasonable". At first I thought this is a mistake because the word "unreasonable" fits the content of the sentence. But careful examination of the word on the original page shows that it is indeed "unseasonable". I then wondered if this is an error which got past the editors of the original text in 1887, and made its way into the original published text. However the word "unseasonable" could be what the original writer intended, as he could be commenting on the correct time for an action to be taken, rather than whether or not the action is reasonable to take.

I'm curious about what Wikisource proofreaders think of this. Ernst76 (talk) 07:23, 31 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
