The Unpublished Portion of “De Profundis”

This is not the whole of the unpublished portion of “De Profundis”; but that part only which was read out in Court and used for the purpose of discrediting1 Lord Alfred Douglas; still, it is more than half of the whole in length and absolutely more than the whole in importance: nothing of any moment is omitted, except the reiteration2 of accusations3 and just this repetition weakens the effect of the argument and strengthens the impression of querulous nagging4 instead of dispassionate statement. If the whole were printed Oscar Wilde would stand worse; somewhat more selfish and more vindictive6.

I have commented the document as it stands mainly for the sake of clearness and because it justifies7 in every particular and almost in every epithet8 the shadows of the portrait which I have endeavoured to paint in this book. Curiously9 enough Oscar Wilde depicts10 himself unconsciously in this part of “De Profundis” in a more unfavourable light than that accorded him in my memory. I believe mine is the more faithful portrait of him, but that is for my readers to determine.

FRANK HARRIS.

NEW YORK, December, 1915.

H.M. Prison, Reading.

DEAR BOSIE,

After long and fruitless waiting I have determined11 to write to you myself, as much for your sake as for mine, as I would not like to think that I had passed through two long years of imprisonment
