[345] Barry uses this word _garboils_ in a sense to which it was not usually applied. The Rev. Mr Todd, in his edition of Dr Johnson's Dictionary, says, "Bishop Hall has rendered Virgil's _arma_, _i.e._, _battles_, by the word _garboil_." This is a mistake, for Hall is laughing at Stanihurst for having so done in his attempted _hexameter_ translation of the Æneid-- "Give me the number'd verse that Virgil sung, And Virgil's self shall speak the English tongue; Manhood and _garboiles_ shall he chaunt with changed feet," &c. --B. i. sat. 6. But there are many authorities besides Shakespeare, in his "Antony and Cleopatra," for its employment. Gascoigne inserts it in the speech of Hercules in the "Princely Pleasures of Kenilworth": "A _garboyel_ this in deede," ["Works" by Hazlitt, ii. 93]. Drayton also uses it in [his "Mortimeriados," 1596,] quoted in "England's Parnassus," p. 444-- "Such is the _garboyle_ of this conflict then; Brave Englishmen encountering Englishmen." and T. Heywood, in his "Rape of Lucrece," 1608, talks of "the head of all these garboyles, the chief actor of that black sin," &c.--_Collier._ [346] [Ride, perhaps a form of _prick_.] [347] Formerly printed _studient_, and for the measure it must be read so.--_Collier._ [The form _studient_ is legitimate, though uncommon, and has been restored.] [348] [This form of address was borrowed from the university.] [349] _i.e._, Subtleties. So in "Every Woman in her Humour," 1609, sig. H 4: "He has his pols and his oedypols, his times and his tricks, his quirks, and _his quilits_," &c. Again, in Lyly's "Euphues," 1581, p. 56: "Not only the, quirks and _quiddities_ of the Logicians, but also," &c. See also Mr Steevens's note on "Hamlet," act v. sc. I. [350] [Edits., _fecks-law_, of which I fail to comprehend the meaning, if any. Tha phrase _firk of law_ occurs again at p. 329, and in the sense of a trick or sleight.] ACTUS II., SCÆNA 1. _Enter_ OLIVER SMALL-SHANKS, THOMAS SMALL-SHANKS. O. SMALL.
