ACT IV.

SC. 1. "Yes, Poole.--Poole?--Poole, sir Poole, lord _Poole_."

* * * * *

"Jove sometime went disguis'd, and why not I?"

This line, so essential to the sense, is not in the folio; to obtain it recourse has been had to The Contention.

* * * * *

"As hating thee, are rising up in arms."

For 'are,' Rowe's correction, the folio has _and_.

* * * * *

"Advance our half-fac'd sun, striving to shine."

For 'our' we should read _a_ or _an_; for the Captain does not seem to have had any connexion with the House of York. See on Hen. V. ii. Chor.

* * * * *

"Exempt is true nobility from fear."

The folio reads 'True nobility is exempt.' We might also, with a loss of force however, read '_For_ true,' etc. Still the choice is difficult.

* * * * *

SC. 2. "I'll make myself a knight _here_ presently."

* * * * *

SC. 4. "Trust nobody for fear you _be_ betray'd."

The 2nd folio supplied _be_.

* * * * *

SC. 7. "And the help of hatchet."

For 'help' Farmer read _pap_. "Pap of hatchet" was a common phrase. In the preceding line there is in the folio a misprint of _candle_ for 'caudle.'

* * * * *

SC. 8. "Or let a rabble lead you to your deaths."

Both Collier's and Singer's folio properly read _rebel_.

* * * * *

SC. 9. "Of Gallowglasses and stout Kernes _he_."

* * * * *

"I pray thee, Buckingham, _to_ go and meet him."

* * * * *

SC. 10. "Contenteth me and _is_ worth a monarchy."

* * * * *

"_And_ as for words whose greatness answers words."
