III.ii.66 (379,2) our general lowts] Our common clowns.
III.ii.69 (379,3) that want] The want of their loves.
III.ii.71 (379,4) Not what] In this place not seems to signify not only.
III.ii.77 (379,5) Waving thy head,/With often, thus, correcting thy stout heart] [W: thy hand,/Which soften thus] The correction is ingenious, yet I think it not right. Head or hand is indifferent. The hand is waved to gain attention; the head is shaken in token of sorrow. The word wave suits better to the hand, but in considering the authour's language, too much stress must not be laid on propriety against the copies. I would read thus,
—waving thy head,
With often, thus, correcting thy stout heart.
That is, shaking thy head, and striking thy breast. The alteration is slight, and the gesture recommended not improper.
III.ii.99 (381,6) my unbarb'd sconce?] The suppliants of the people used to present themselves to them in sordid and neglected dresses.
III.ii.113 (381,8) Which quired with my drum] Which played in concert with my drum.
III.ii.116 (382,1) Tent in my cheeks] To tent is to take up residence.
