Whose action first did give it name, and one,
Who came the neerest to him, is denide
By his gray beard to shew the height and pride
Of D'Ambois youth and braverie; yet to hold
Our title still a foot, and not grow cold
By giving it o're, a third man with his best
Of care and paines defends our interest;
As Richard he was lik'd, nor doe wee feare,
In personating Dambois, hee'le appeare
To faint, or goe lesse, so your free consent
As heretofore give him encouragement."

FOOTNOTES:
[98] See Nares. ed. 1859, _v._ Nott. We still have the vulgarism _nut_
for the head; but it more properly means a head with the hair cut close.
[99] These errors in "Ralph Roister Doister" have been pointed out by
a correspondent, who states that he has detected them on a personal
collation of the original copy at Eton College. But many of the
variations noticed by this gentleman have been intentional corrections
of the old copy.
[100] Yet in "Jack Juggler" (ii. 141), _wage-pasty_ occurs.
[101] So in "Appius and Virginia" (iv. 136)--
"Hard by Hodge's half-acre, at Gaffer Miller's stile."
