If the story has given you any pleasure, think kindly of the man who wrote it, and also try to find a little kindness for the man who has rearranged it for you. But if on the other hand we have only succeeded in boring you, please believe that we did not do so on purpose.
Alessandro Manzoni, The Betrothed.
