IND. 1. 86. 'Sincklo,' the stage direction of the first Folio, was the name of an actor in Shakespeare's company, not mentioned in the list of 'Principall Actors' at the beginning of the first Folio. He was one of the actors in the Second Part of _Henry IV._, as appears from the 4to. edition of that play, published in 1600, where the stage direction to Act V. Scene 4 is, "Enter Sincklo and three or foure officers," and the part taken by Sincklo is that usually assigned to the 'Officer.' In the Third Part of _Henry VI._ Act III. Scene 1, the stage direction in the first Folio is, 'Enter Sinklo, and Humfrey, with crosse-bowes in their hands.' Sinklo also appears as an actor in the Induction to Marston's play of _The Malcontent_. In the present play he probably took the part of Lucentio. In III. 1. 80, '_Nicke._' is supposed by Steevens to mean Nicholas Tooley, who at a later period became one of the 'Principall Actors.' NOTE V. IND. 1. 99. Pope inserts here the following speech from the old play: '_2 Player_ [_to the other_]. Go get a dishclout to make clean your shoes, and I'll speak for the properties. [_Exit Player._] My lord, we must have a shoulder of mutton for a property, and a little vinegar to make our devil roar.' This insertion is repeated by all subsequent editors, till Capell struck it out of the text and Steevens placed it in a note. NOTE VI. IND. 2. 96. The following speeches are here inserted by Pope from the same source: '_Sly._ By th' mass I think I am a lord indeed. What's thy name? _Man._ Simon, an't please your honour. _Sly._ Sim? that's as much as to say Simeon or Simon; put forth thy hand and fill the pot.' Capell was the first to strike it out of the text. NOTE VII. IND. 2. 110. Pope prefixed to Sly's speech the following words from the old play, without giving any indication that they were not Shakespeare's: 'Come sit down on my knee. Sim, drink to her.' They are repeated in all subsequent editions, till Capell restored the true text. After line 115, Pope again added, 'Sim, drink to her.' NOTE VIII. I. 1. 32. The old play (Q) after the Induction, commences thus: '_Polidor._ Welcome to Athens, my beloved friend, To Plato's school and Aristotle's walks....' but this affords us no hint as to the true reading of the passage in question, whether 'checks' or 'ethics.' When Mr Halliwell conjectured that we should read 'works' for 'walks,' he had not observed that the allusion was to the gardens of the Lyceum, the favourite haunt of the Peripatetics. NOTE IX. I. 1. 57. We have often observed that as in this line and in III. 1. 4, and Ind. 2. 110, the metre may be completed by pronouncing the name of the speaker at the beginning. This is one indication among many, of the haste with which parts of Shakespeare's plays were thrown off. NOTE X.
