[Footnote 79: We will both watch and ward shall keep his trunk]

i.e. We will that both watch, &c. So the 4to.--The 8vo has "AND keepe."]

[Footnote 95: stature] See note , p. 27.--So the 8vo.--The 4to "statue."

Here the metre would be a.s.sisted by reading "statua," which is frequently found in our early writers: see my REMARKS ON MR. COLLIER'S AND MR. KNIGHT'S EDITIONS OF SHAKESPEARE, p. 186.

[note , from p. 27. (The First Part of Tamburlaine the Great):

"stature] So the 8vo.--The 4to "statue:" but again, in the SECOND PART of this play, act ii. sc. 4, we have, according to the 8vo--

"And here will I set up her STATURE."

and, among many pa.s.sages that might be cited from our early authors, compare the following;

"The STATURES huge, of Porphyrie and costlier matters made."

Warner's ALBIONS ENGLAND, p. 303. ed. 1596.

"By them shal Isis STATURE gently stand."

Chapman's BLIND BEGGER OF ALEXANDRIA, 1598, sig. A 3.

"Was not Anubis with his long nose of gold preferred before Neptune, whose STATURE was but bra.s.se?"
