I'll cheer up
My discontented troops, and play for hearts.
'Tis honour with most hands to be at odds]
[Warburton had substituted "hands" for "lands"] I think _hands_ is very
properly substituted for _lands_. In the foregoing line, for, _lay for
hearts_, I would read, _play_ for _hearts_.
III.vi.4 (339,7) Upon that were my thoughts tiring] A hawk, I think, is
said to _tire_, when she amuses herself with pecking a pheasant's wing,
or any thing that puts her in mind of prey. To _tire_ upon a thing, is
therefore, to be _idly employed upon it_.
III.vi.100 (342,9) Is your perfection] Your _perfection_, is _the
highest of your excellence_.
III.vi.101 (342,1) and spangled you with flatteries] [W: with your] The
present reading is right.
III.vi.106 (342,2) time-flies] Flies of a season.
III.vi. 107 (342,5) minute-jacks!] Hanmer thinks it means
_Jack-a-lantern_, which shines and disappears in an instant. What it was
I know not; but it was something of quick motion, mentioned in Richard
III.
III.vi.108 (342,4) the infinite malady] Every kind of disease incident
to man and beast.
