So I determined that I would wait until⁠—⁠—⁠—⁠—⁠—⁠—⁠—⁠—⁠and then I would write my "Jail". Then in order to show my readers what the second chapter and the remainder would look like, I censored then myself, and I am inquisitive to know whether our beloved censor will nevertheless discover some connection between the fragments of sentences that are left and the endangered interests of the state, and whether he will swallow up still more of them.
