NOTES.
NOTE I.
I. 1. 8, 9. The suggestion that a line has been lost in this place came
first from Theobald. It is scarcely necessary to say that there is no
mark of omission in the Folios. Malone supposes that a similar omission
has been made II. 4. 123. The compositor's eye (he says) may have
glanced from 'succeed' to 'weakness' in a subsequent hemistich.
In order to relieve the plethoric foot-note we set down in this place
some conjectures for which we are indebted to Mr Halliwell's note on the
passage.
(1) _Then no more remains
To your sufficiency as your worth is able
But that you let than work._
Wheler MS.
(2) _But task to your sufficience ..._
Dent. MS.
(3) _But that your sufficiency as your worth be able ..._
Monck Mason.
(4) _Then no more remains:
To your sufficiency your worth be added,
And let them work._
T. Hull's MS. Commentary.
(5) _... I let them work._
Chalmers.
