page 196 note 3 It is here that the inverted commas should stop. The quotation is not verbal, but seems to be based on the following passage. Lecture V of Stubbs' Lectures on Medieval and Modern History, Oxford, 1887, p. 124. “It seems as if…no one has the spirit to undertake it [such work] unless he is stirred by something stronger than the desire of being useful, the desire of ventilating some party view or destroying the character of some partisan opposed to him.”Google Scholar
