III. 2. 126. We retain the reading of the Quarto, understanding 'much' in the ironical sense in which it is often found. See As You Like It, IV. 3. 2, and the present play, II. 4. 121.
[Note X.]
III. 2. 293 and 310. Here there are variations in different copies of the Quarto, in line 293, between genius and gemies, and, in line 310, between Let and Till. A variation is found also, V. 2. 140, between you and your.
[Note XI.]
IV. I. 93, 95. These lines are omitted in the Folios and in some copies of the Quarto. With regard to the former line, Theobald says that his copy of the Quarto read, 'And consecrate Commotion's civil Edge:' in his text he altered 'civil edge' to 'civil page.'
IV. I. 94. Mr Singer supposed that after commonwealth a line had been lost, something to the following effect:
'Whose wrongs do loudly call out for redress.'
Mr Julius Lloyd writes to us: "I am sure the lines are transposed and should be read thus:
'I make my quarrel in particular
My brother; general, the commonwealth.'
