[194] See note [50].

[195] Old ed. "esteem'd."

[196] "Open … palpable … grosse … mountaine." The writer had surely in his mind Prince Hal's words to Falstaff:—"These lies are like their father that begets them: gross as a mountain, open, palpable."

[197] Old ed. "Of Lenos mathrens." I have no doubt that my correction restores the true reading. Cf. above "Panders and Parasites sit in the places," &c.

[198] Quy. "On, friends, to warre"? Perhaps something has dropped out—"Urge all our friends to warre."

[199] Old ed. "dishonour'd."

[200] Not marked in old ed.

[201] This speech is not very intelligible, but I can only mend it by violent changes.

[202] Old ed. "payes all."

[203] Old ed. "of this spatious play."
