III.iii.112 (89,4)

Unseemly woman in a seeming man!

And ill-beseeming beast in seeming both!]

[W: seeming groth] The old reading is probable. _Thou art a beast of ill

qualities, under the appearance both of a woman and a man_.

III.iii.135 (90,5) And thou dismember'd with thine own defence] And thou

torn to pieces with thy own weapons.

III.iii.166-168 (91,6) Go hence. Good night] These three lines are

omitted in all the modern editions.

III.iii.166 (91,7) here stands all your state] The whole of your fortune

depends on this.

III.iv.12 (92,9) Sir Paris, I will make a desperate tender/Of my child's

love] _Desperate_ means only _bold, advent'rous_, as if he had said in

the vulgar phrase, _I will speak a_ bold _word_, and venture _to promise

you my daughter_.

III.v.20 (94,1) 'Tis but the pale reflex of Cynthia's brow] The

appearance of a cloud opposed to the moon.

III.v.23 (94,2) I have more care to stay, than will to go] Would it be

better thus, _I have more will to stay, than care to go_?

III.v.31 (94,3) Some say, the lark and loathed toad chang'd eyes] This

tradition of the toad and lark I hare heard expressed in a rustick

rhyme,

--_to heav'n I'd fly,

But the toad beguil'd me of my eye._
