"This dangerous conception in this point." The first 'This' should be perhaps _His_ or _The_. * * * * * "By a vain prophecy of Nicholas Hopkins." The folio has _Henton_, the name of his convent, for 'Hopkins.' * * * * * "Whom after under the confession's seal." The folio reads _commission's_; the correction is Theobald's. * * * * * "The monk might be deceiv'd, and that 'twas dangerous for him." In the folio it is 'for _this_'; Rowe corrected it. * * * * * "As he made semblance of his duty _he_ would." * * * * * SC. 3. "The spavin, A springhalt reign'd among them." For 'A' Collier's folio reads _Or_; I read _And_. See on Temp. i. 2. * * * * * "For I was spoke to, with Sir Henry Guildford ... This night to be comptrollers." I think we should punctuate thus to get rid of the grammatical difficulty. We have precisely such another in 3 Hen. VI. i. 2. * * * * * SC. 4. "My lord Sands.--Yes, if I _can_ make my play." * * * * * "Because they speak no English, thus they prayed _me_." ACT II. SC. 1. "Whither away so fast?--Oh! God save you, _sir_." * * * * * "To have brought, _vivâ voce_, to his face." For 'have' the folio has _him_. The correction was made in the 4th folio. * * * * * "No black envy Shall mark my grave." This is the reading of Warburton, generally followed. The folio has _make_ for 'mark.' * * * * * "Yet are the King's; and till my soul forsake." We may, with Rowe, read 'forsake _me_' making 'vows and prayers' the subj. to 'Shall cry'; but a line may have been lost, as 'my soul' is a more suitable subj. to 'cry.' * * * * * SC. 2. "I know your Majesty has always lov'd her So dear in heart, not to deny her that." It would seem that 'So' should be _Too_; but then the negative may make a difficulty. 'Not' is, as not. * * * * * SC. 3. "To leave's a thousand times more bitter than." * * * * * "Yet if that quarrel, _by_ fortune, do divorce." I think the passage thus gains sense: "I found _by fortune_" (Othel. v. 2). "And shalt, _by fortune_, once more resurvey" (Son. xxxii.). Hanmer read 'quarrel_er_,' and Warburton said 'quarrel' was arrow. 'It' is the 'pomp' just mentioned. * * * * * "You'd venture an emballing." Warburton read _embalming_; Steevens _empalling_. * * * * * "Commends his good opinion of you [to you] and Does purpose honour to you."
