I.i.31 (342,2)

[To love, to wealth, to pomp, I pine and die;

With all these, living in philosophy]

The stile of the rhyming scenes in this play is often entangled

and obscure. I know not certainly to what _all these_ is to be

referred; I suppose he means, that he finds _love_, _pomp_, and

_wealth_ in _philosophy_.

I.i.75 (344,4) [while truth the while Doth falsly blind] _Falsly_ is

here, and in many other places, the same as _dishonestly_ or

_treacherously_. The whole sense of this gingling declamation is only

this, that _a man by too close study may read himself blind_, which

might have been told with less obscurity in fewer words.
