Those unlick't beare-whelps, unfil'd pistolets
That (more than Canon shot) availes or lets. P. [97], l. 32.
The rhyme makes the form here indisputable. The MSS. point to a more frequent use of 'hath' with a plural subject than the editions have preserved. The above three instances seem all plurals. In other cases the individuals form a whole, or there is ellipsis:
All Kings, and all their favorites,
All glory of honors, beauties, wits,
The Sunne it selfe which makes times, as they passe,
Is elder by a year, now, then it was.
The Anniversarie, p. [24], ll. 1-4.
He that but tasts, he that devours,
And he that leaves all, doth as well.
