Difference
Oscar Wilde was subjected to a stringent cross examination with the view of showing that "Dorian Grey" and some articles in the
Chameleon Magazine with which he is connected are of an immoral tendency. Wilde insisted that they are merely the expression of artistic faculty. His
letters to Douglas were prose poems, extraordinary perhaps but not justifying an immoral interpretation. He admitted that he gave one of his alleged
blackmailers L21 and lunched with him in a private room afterwards. The case was adjourned and defendant admitted to bail.
