'Papers' is here evidently a verb, as Pope saw, in the sense of 'puts on paper'; but we have no other instance of it. Mr. Staunton proposes paupers, a verb equally unknown and still more devoid of meaning here. I cannot regard 'papers' as right; yet I know not what to propose in its place. Possibly the original may have been puts there.
"A beggar's book
Outworths a noble's blood."
Collier's folio reads brood for 'book,' and a rime may have been intended.
Sc. 2.
"To you that chok'd it."
'Chok'd' is a very bold term in this place; perhaps the word was check'd.
