"(He shall not go) I but _fear_ the knave." And in "Sejanus his Fall," iv.:-- "His subtility hath chose this doubling line, To hold him even in; not so to _fear_ him, As wholly put him out." Again, in "A Fair Quarrel," ii. 1: "But as it is, it _fears_ me." So in "Euphues and his England," 1580: "Nor the perswasions of Papists ... could either _fear_ hir or allure hir." Parkes, in his "Curtain-Drawer of the World," 1612, p. 41, has, "If he shall _feare_ us out of our wits with strange words." [150] _Discontent_, 1618, '23, '33. [151] _Hearken_, 1618, '23, '33. [152] [Betray.] [153] [This scene is thus enlarged by Jonson in the 4to of 1602:]-- LORENZO. Why so, Hieronimo? use me. HIERONIMO. _Who? you, my lord?_ _I reserve your favour for a greater honour:_ _This is a very toy, my lord, a toy._ LORENZO. _All's one, Hieronimo, acquaint me with it._ HIERONIMO. _I' faith, my lord, 'tis an idle thing, I must confess,_ _I ha' been too slack, too tardy, too remiss, unto your honour._ LORENZO. _How now, Hieronimo?_ HIERONIMO. _In troth, my lord, it is a thing of nothing;_ _The murder of a son, or so--_ _A thing of nothing, my lord!_ LORENZO. Why then, farewell. [154] _Thee_, 1623, '33. [155] _Thus it is: disguis'd_, 1618, '23, '33. [156] [_Jeron_ is probably short for _Jeronimo_, and the words in the text were perhaps intended to represent something privately understood between the speakers.] [157] _For_, 1618, '23, '33. [158] _Nor_, 1618, '23, '33. [159] These are terms used in several modern Acts of Parliament, for that composition which is paid in the City of London to cause the attendance, which formerly every householder was obliged to give in person, to _watch_ in his respective _ward_. See Stowe, ed. 1720, ii. 393. [160] _Brother's_, 1618, '23, '33. [161] The ancient name for a _pistol_. So in "Arden of Feversham," 1592-- "Or dare abide the noise the _dagge_ will make." Again, ibid.-- "I'll leave you at your _dag's_ discharge." And-- "My _dagge_ was levelled at his hart." So also in "Jack Drum's Entertainment," 1601, v.-- "Whilst he would show me how to hold the _dagge_." Again, Ascham (Works, by Bennet, p. 21): "Ridving on his journey, he was once shot _with a dagge_ secretly." [162] _Marshall_, 1618, '23, '33. [163] _Hieronimo_, ditto. [164] _Not_, 1618, '23, '33. [165] _I, Serberine_, 1618, '23, '33. [166] Snared or entangled, as a bird with bird-lime. So in "Much Ado about Nothing," iii. 1-- "She's limed, I warrant you, we have caught her, madam." And in "Arden of Feversham"-- "Once more Lime well your twigs to catch this wary bird." [167] _Hope_, 1623, '33.
