FOOTNOTES:
[1] A reredos was a kind of open hearth or brazier. Pose, just below, means a cold in the head, and quack a hoarseness or croaking caused by a cold in the throat.
[2] In the original each of these lines is divided into two, thus:
"First in the mornynge
when thou dost awake
To God for his grace
thy peticion then make;" etc.
To save space, I arrange the lines as Dr. Furnivall does.
[3] The spelling handkercher, common in these old books, and in the early editions of Shakespeare, indicates the pronunciation of the time. In As You Like It, The Taming of the Shrew, Hamlet, Othello, and other plays, napkin is equivalent to handkerchief. This, indeed, is the only meaning of the word in Shakespeare, as often in other writers of the period.
