This Appendix records variant
readings between the texts of "Hans Fingerhut’s
Frog-lesson" that were published in Man
(November 1885) and the Rouge et Noir
(February 1, 1886). Entries are keyed to the line
numbers in the present edition. In each entry
the reading of the Rouge et Noir text is
given before the square bracket and that of the
Man text after. Thus, in line 12 "ill-deed"
(line-end hyphenated compound) in Man became
"ill deed" in Rouge et Noir.
