[The words "nor any Crambo" mean that the sentiment expressed by

Solomon is a truth which cannot be too often repeated. Crabbe says,

"_Crambo_ is a play, in rhyming, in which he that repeats a word that

was said before forfeits something." In all the MSS. and editions of

the _Religio Medici_, 1642, the words "nor any Crambo," are wanting.

See note on the passage in the edition edited by Simon Wilkin, F.L.S.]
