II.iii.122 (352,8)
Why in this woolvish tongue should I stand here
To beg of Bob and Dick, that do appear,
Their needless vouches?]
Why stand I here in this ragged apparel to beg of Bob and Dick, and such others as make their appearance here, their unnecessary votes. I rather think we should read [instead of voucher], Their needless vouches. But voucher may serve, as it may perhaps signify either the act or the agent.
II.iii.122 (352) this woolvish gown] Signifies this rough hirsute gown.
II.iii.182 (355,1) ignorant to see't?] [W: "ignorant" means "impotent">[ That ignorant at any time has, otherwise than consequentially, the same meaning with impotent, I do not know. It has no such meaning in this place. Were you ignorant to see it, is, did you want knowledge to discern it.
II.iii.208 (356,2) free contempt] That is, with contempt open and unrestrained.
II.iii.227 (357,4) Enforce his pride] Object his pride, and enforce the objection.
II.iii.258 (358,7) Scaling his present bearing with his past] That is, weighing his past and present behaviour.
