II.iii.217 (60,3) [yet art then good for nothing but taking up] To take up, is to _contradict_, to _call to account_, as well as to _pick off the ground_. II.iii.242 (60,4) [in the default] That is, _at a need_. II.iii.246 (61,5) [for doing, I am past; as I will by thee, in what motion age will give me leave] [Warburton suspected a line lost after "past"] This suspicion of chasm is groundless. The conceit which is so thin that it might well escape a hasty reader, is in the word _past, I am past, as I will be_ past _by thee_. II.iii.309 (63,9) [To the dark house] The _dark house_ is a house made gloomy by discontent. Milton says of _death_ and the _king_ of hell preparing to combat, _So frown'd the mighty combatants, that hell Grew_ darker _at their frown_. II.iv.45 (65,1) [Whose want, and whose delay, is strew'd with sweets] The _sweets_ with which this _want_ are _strewed_, I suppose, are compliments and professions of kindness. II.iv.52 (65,2) [probable need] A specious appearance of necessity. III.i.10 (70,5) [The reasons of our state I cannot yield] I cannot inform you of the reasons. III.i.11 (70,6) [an outward man] [W: i.e. one not in the secret of affairs] So _inward_ is familiar, admitted to secrets. _I was an_ inward _of his_. Measure for Measure. III.ii.59 (73,1) [_When thou canst get the ring upon my finger_] [W: When thou canst get the ring, which is on my finger, into thy possession] I think Dr. Warburton's explanation sufficient, but I once read it thus, _When thou canst get the ring upon_ thy _finger, which newer shall come off_ mine. III.ii.100 (74,3) [Not so, but as we change our courtesies] The gentlemen declare that they are servants to the Countess, she replies, No otherwise than as she returns the same offices of civility. III.iv.4 (77,4) [St. Jaques' pilgrim] I do not remember any place famous for pilgrimages consecrated in Italy to St. James, but it is common to visit St. James of Compostella, in Spain. Another saint might easily have been found, Florence being somewhat out of the road from Bonsillon to Compostella. III.iv.13 (77,6) [Juno] Alluding to tho story of Hercules. III.iv.19 (77,6) [Rinaldo, you did never lack advice so much] _Advice_, is _discretion_ or _thought_. III.v.21 (79,7) [are not the things they go under] [W: Mr. Theobald explains these words by, _They are not really so true and sincere as in appearance they seem to be_.] I think Theobald's interpretation right; _to go under_ the name of any thing is a known expression. The meaning is, they are not the things for which their names would make them pass. III.v.66 (81,8) [examin'd] That is, _question'd, doubted_. III.v.74 (81,9) [brokes] Deals as a _broker_. III.vi.107 (86,6) [we have almost imboss'd him] To imboss a deer is to inclose him in a wood. Milton uses the same word: _Like that self-begotten bird In th' Arabian woods embost. Which no second knows or third_.
