[133] Readiness, second edit.

[134] Ovid. "Amor." lib. i. el. 5.

[136] The old stage direction states that Subtle enters, with a letter, but the words have been misplaced, and should have followed Brother, who delivers it to the Lady Honour.

[138] Old copies, couching.

[139] Edits., I.

[140] In the margin, opposite what Feesimple says, are inserted the words Pistols for Bro., meaning merely to remind the keeper of the properties that at this point it was necessary that Frank, the brother, should be provided with pistols.
