"_Impatient to speak and not see_" (Vol. ii., p. 490.).--There is no doubt
of the fine interpretation of your correspondent; but it is not illustrated
by the Latin. Also, I apprehend, "indocilis pati" is not put for "indocilis
patiendi." It is a common use of _to_--proud to be praised; angry to be so
ill-treated.
It illustrates a line in Hotspur, the construction of which Warburton would
have altered:
"I then, all smarting, and my wounds being cold,
_To be_ so pestered," &c., _i.e._ at being.
May I mention a change in _Troilus and Cressida_ which I have long
entertained, but with doubt:
"And with an accent tun'd in self-same key,
Retires to chiding fortune."
