The present re-print of the 'Aids to Reflection' is mainly from Mr. H.
N. Coleridge's, or the fourth edition. In some points, however, the
earlier editions, which have been carefully consulted throughout, have
been followed.
Dr. Marsh's Preliminary Essay to the 'Aids to Reflection' is printed
from his own second edition, published with the 'Aids' at Burlington,
U.S., in 1840.
Coleridge's posthumous 'Confessions of an Inquiring Spirit' is from
Mr. H. N. Coleridge's text, which was printed from the author's MS.
The 'Essay on Faith' and 'Notes on the Book of Common Prayer' are
re-printed from Coleridge's 'Remains,' as being, possibly, parts of
the "supplementary volume" to the 'Aids to Reflection,' which the
author contemplated (_vide_ p. 257) but never published. The 'Nightly
Prayer' is also re-printed from Coleridge's 'Remains.'
