I. 4. 61. Steevens says 'The first Folio reads--_remote_.' We have not been able to find this reading in any copy of that edition which we have consulted. Sir Frederic Madden has kindly collated for us the four copies in the British Museum, all of which have 'remoued.' This is also the reading of Capell's copy, of Malone's, and of two others to which we have had access, and it is the reading in Mr Booth's reprint. NOTE VIII. I. 5. 80. 'A very learned lady,' probably Mrs Montagu, suggested to Johnson that this line 'O, horrible! O, horrible! most horrible!' should be given to Hamlet, and it is said that Garrick adopted this suggestion when he played Hamlet. Rann appears to be the first editor who put it in his text. Mr Verplanck and Mr Hudson have followed his example. In the Quarto of 1603, (Q₁), the Ghost says 'O horrible, most horrible!' and Hamlet interrupts with 'O God!' NOTE IX. I. 5. 113-116. The second Quarto followed by the rest reads thus: '_Enter Horatio, and Marcellus._ _Hora._ My Lord, my Lord. _Mar._ Lord _Hamlet_. _Hora._ Heauens secure him. _Ham._ So be it. _Mar._ Illo, ho, ho, my Lord.' The Folios have: '_Hor. & Mar. within._ My Lord, my Lord. _Enter Horatio and Marcellus._ _Mar._ Lord _Hamlet_. _Hor._ Heauen secure him. _Mar._ So be it. _Hor._ Illo, ho, ho, my Lord.' Capell first transferred the stage direction '_Enter Horatio and Marcellus_' to follow line 117, and added the direction '_within_' to all the previous speeches. In this he has been followed by Steevens (1778) and all subsequent editors. As however the first Quarto, which was taken down probably during the representation of the play, puts the words _Enter Horatio, and Marcellus_ opposite 'My Lord, my Lord,' it is probable that they really entered at that place but were supposed, it being night-time, not to be seen by Hamlet till they were close to him. Capell followed the Quartos in assigning 'So be it' to Hamlet. NOTE X. I. 5. 157-160. The second Quarto followed substantially by the rest reads thus: 'Come hether Gentlemen, And lay your hands againe vpon my sword, Sweare by my sword Neuer to speak of this that you haue heard.' The first Folio has: 'Come hither Gentlemen, And lay your hands again upon my sword, Neuer to speake of this that you have heard: Sweare by my Sword.' The following Folios put a full stop after 'sword' in the second line. Capell, taking the order of words from the Quartos, arranged as three lines, thus: 'Come hither, gentlemen, and lay your hands Again upon my sword; Swear by my sword, Never to speak of this that you have heard.' The first Quarto supports the order of the words as found in the Folio. Perhaps we might follow it and arrange the words of the Folio in three lines ending 'hands' ... 'speak' ... 'sword.' NOTE XI.
