[49] MS. 'Geron, his.' D. Isham 'Geron whose.' G.
[50] Isham corrects the misprint 'yeares,' and of 'time' in next line. G.
[51] Isham 'odde.' G.
[52] The reading in our text, and in all the editions, including Isham, is 'seene': but above from MS, as rhyming with Newhaven seems preferable. Newhaven was formerly called Havre de Grace. All the date-events are commonplaces of History. G.
[53] Ill-natured. D. [This is a good-natured explanation. I fear that in this place it means more and worse, though in the Taming of the Shrew we have Kate the curst, without the slightest imputation on her moral character, or any allusion to anything but her vixen temper. G.]
[54] MS. "for newes."—The first edition [and Isham] reads 'from Mins': the other two as above. Mins' (which perhaps should be written Min's) is, I presume, the name of some person who kept an Ordinary where gaming was practised. D.
[55] Isham 'a.' G.
[56] Sic: but should be, as Isham, Ciprium: Mr. Dyce reads Cyprium. G.
[57] Died October 7th, 1577. His Works have been worthily collected by Mr. W. C. Hazlitt in his Roxburghe Library. G.
[58] MS. "notes." D. [first edition and Isham "lookes": others as above. G.]
