Sc. 6.
"Alexas did revolt, and went to Jewry
On affairs of Antony's; there did dissuade
Great Herod to incline himself to Cæsar."
Malone has shown from North's Plutarch that persuade, not 'dissuade,' was the poet's word. In the first line for 'and' I read He, which may have been written A'.
Sc. 7.
"Cæsar himself has work, and our oppression
Exceeds what we expected."
The right word is 'opposition,' also the reading of Hanmer and Warburton.
