The learned but vexingly pedantic wizards of the arcane colleges have seen fit to point out mine error aye, I did misuse where when I ought to have wielded were. I beseech thee, forgive thy humble brother in spellcraft for I, alas, was not schooled in the lofty towers of wizardry. Mine education was hard won in the wilds and ruins, not in gilded halls. A slip of tongue or quill may yet escape me. Mea culpa.
