An Abomination

Basil Lanneau Gildersleeve, "Brief Mention," American Journal of Philology 38.2 (1917) 222-227 (at 224):
To me as to every scholar, as to everyone who has pretensions to scholarship, false quantities are an abomination...
Id. (at 226):
Among the sins that seem to be purged by confession are typographical errors. They are sins because they shew a lack of vigilance.
