"The charges alleged against me are entirely untrue. Youth in every form always fascinated
me, because youth has naturally that
temperament to which the artist has to try to attain. All works of art are works produced
in the moment of youth. I have no sense at all of social grades.
I love society and the rich and well born on account of their luxury, culture, the
grace of their lives, the external accidents of comely life. But
anyone, ploughboy, fisherman or street arab, has an interest for me. Mere humanity
is so wonderful. I do not ask of the young what they do I do not care
who they are. Their ignorance has its mode of wisdom; their lack of culture leaves
them open to fresh and vivid impression. (Signed.)
"OSCAR
WILDE."

When the foreman of the jury delivered the verdict, Wilde, who had entered the prisoners’ dock a moment before, rose from the chair upon which he has been seated throughout the trial, and stood with his arms on the rail of the dock. The silence which prevailed throughout the court room was really painful as Justice Wills ordered that Alfred Taylor should also be summoned before him. Then, in a voice trembling with emotion the justice said:

"I never before had such a shocking case as this to deal with. Two men such as you are by the very nature of your crime lost to all sense of remorse for what you have done. There is no doubt but that the verdict is a just one, and I shall give you the full penalty allowed by law, and I only regret that it is not more severe. You are both sentenced to hard labour for the term of two years."

Wilde never once looked at the judge while the sentence was being pronounced. His eyes roved around the court room, his face never changed color and he looked like a man who had made up his mind to make the best of a bad situation. Taylor only smiled when the sentence was pronounced.

During the time the jury was debating upon the verdict, Lord Douglas of Hawick strolled out of the court room and into the courtyard, where he walked about, nervously smoking a cigarette. His face still shows traces of his recent encounter with his father, his left eye being much discolored. During the final stages of Wilde’s trial to-day there was an immense crowd in front of the Old Bailey, and the windows of all the neighbouring houses were filled with highly interested spectators.

Mr. Travers Humphreys, of counsel for Wilde, also told the representative of the Associated press that the verdict was a surprise to him.
