L. 152.

I would, I could _see_ this taborer: [Ariel] he _lays it

on_.

Also _Id._ III, ii, 119.

Stephano, like most of the scamps in Shakespeare, is a good musician.

He leads the catch, appreciates Ariel's tabor playing (l. 152), and is

overjoyed to think that he will have all his music 'for nothing' (l.

145) in the magical isle.

Finally, in the _Taming of the Shrew_, we have the title of another

old catch, of which the music has survived--viz., 'Jack, boy.'

_Shrew_ IV, i, 42.

_Curtis._ Therefore, good Grumio, the _news_.

_Grumio._ Why, "_Jack, boy! ho, boy!_" and as much _news_ as

thou wilt.
