Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Principles of Composition
In order to save a great many unnecessary longhand corrections, the following abbreviations to be placed in the margin are very generally used. In addition to these, if the passage commented on is a brief one, it is usually underlined; if more than a few words in length, a vertical line indicating its extent is usually placed at the right edge of the margin.
