wording of the sentence

Following which I heard the exact wording of the sentence.

The structures of sentence completion tests vary according to the length and relative generality and wording of the sentence stems.

(I am not entirely clear about the wording of the sentence which I have emphasised, but I think the sense is that the accused can be convicted of obtaining by deception, whether the offence has taken the form of larceny by a trick or obtaining by false pretences.)
