Apologies for hoping to exploit the generosity of list members once 
again, this time with a relatively trivial question.

For an account of the publication history of The Waves, I'm trying to 
learn whether the one variant between the first impression and the third 
impression (the Uniform Edition) also occurs in the second impression.

The variant is on page 35, at the end of line 9, where, in the Uniform 
Edition, the second "l" in "will" has dropped out, leaving "wil" 
instead. The Cambridge edition records this variant in the Uniform 
Edition but doesn't say whether it also occurs in the second impression. 
I haven't been able to find a copy of the second impression except from 
booksellers offering it at US$250 or more, which seems a bit much to pay 
to answer this one question. If you have a copy of the second 
impression, could you let me know if p. 35, line 9 has "will" or "wil"?

Incidentally, I've now scanned a copy of the Uniform Edition and 
compared the text to that of the first impression, on the off chance 
that another variant might have been lurking there waiting to be 
noticed. But the only variant was that dropped "l" which the world 
already knew about, thanks to the Cambridge edition.
