FOOTNOTES:
[455] Dyce has carefully recorded the readings of a MS. copy (Harl. MS. 1836) of the present epigrams. As in most cases the variations are unimportant, I have not thought it necessary to reproduce Dyce's elaborate collation. Where the MS. readings are distinctly preferable I have adopted them; but in such cases I have been careful to record the readings of the printed copies.
[456] So Dyce.—Old eds. "loue and praise thee;" MS. "Seeme to love thee."
[457] So Isham copy and MS. Ed. A "approve."
[458] Censuring. Dyce compares the Induction to the Knight of the Burning Pestle:—
"Fly far from hence
All private taxes."
[459] So MS.—Old eds. "does."
[460] MS. "Which carrieth under a peculiar name."
