(An honour in him which buys out his fault)]
I have printed these lines after the original copy, except that, for an honour, it is there, and honour. All the latter editions deviate unwarrantably from the original, and give the lines thus:
He is a man, setting his fault aside,
Of virtuous honour, which buys out his fault;
Nor did he soil, &c.
III.v.22 (333,3)
He did behave, his anger ere 'twas spent,
As if he had but prov'd an argument]
The original copy reads not behave but behoove. I do not well understand the passage in either reading. Shall we try a daring conjecture?
