Here, too, I suspect that the poet wrote 'mountains.' 'Seem'd in next line is the reading of the 2nd folio; the originals have seeme.


"Was to be gone from Athens where we might

Without the peril of the Athenian law...."

This is the reading of Fisher's 4to; Roberts' and the folio read 'might be'; which does not suit the metre of this play. Egeus breaks in and interrupts him.


"Melted, e'en as the snow, seems to me now."

"It wasted and consum'd even like ice

That by the vehemence of heat dissolveth."

Green's Tu Quoque.
