Sense and metre demand this addition of Hanmer's.


Sc. 3.

"That through the sight I bear in things to Jove."

For 'to Jove' most critics follow Mason in reading to come. Collier hints at above. But the text is right; to occurs constantly in the sense of at, chez, apud: ex. gr. "Being a great favourite to Queen Elizabeth" (Ashmole, Hist. of Berkshire, i. 249). "My heart to her, but as guestwise sojourned" (M. N. D. iii. 2). "Lord Angelo having affairs to heaven" (Meas. for Meas. iii. 1).

"But let determin'd things to Destiny

Hold unbewail'd their way."

Ant. and Cleop. iii. 6.

It is to be observed that the word in the originals is love, not 'Jove,' and the very same error occurs in i. 3.
