[Indeed, my lord,
If I had thought, the sight of my poor image
Would thus have wrought you, (for the stone is mine)
I'd not have shew'd it]
[Tyrwhitt: for the stone i' th' mine] To change an accurate expression
for an expression confessedly not accurate, has somewhat
of retrogradation. (1773)
V.iii.131 (389,6) [You precious winners all] You who by this discovery
have _gained_ what you desired may join in festivity, in which I,
who have lost what never can be recovered, can have no part.
(300) General Observation, Of this play no edition is known published
before the folio of 1623.
This play, as Dr. Warburton justly observes, is, with all its
absurdities, very entertaining. The character of Antolycus is
very naturally conceived, and strongly represented, (see 1765, II, 349)
