Note *, from p. 101. (Doctor Faustus, from the quarto of 1604):
"That, when you, &c.: So all the old eds.; and it is certain
that awkward changes of person are sometimes found in passages
of our early poets: but qy.,—
"That, when THEY vomit forth into the air,
My limbs may issue from THEIR smoky mouths," &c.?" ]

[ 0, if, &c.: 2to 1604, in the corresponding passage, has "Oh, GOD, if," &c. (see p. 101, sec. col.), and that reading seems necessary for the sense.
P. 101, sec. col. (Doctor Faustus, from the quarto of 1604):
"Ah, half the hour is past! 'twill all be past anon
O God,
If thou wilt not have mercy on my soul,
Yet for Christ's sake, whose blood hath ransom'd me,
Impose some end to my incessant pain;" etc. ]
