Mr. Warburton is acquainted with Clymene's amours, the Duke is not talking of them here. MING (another word of Mr Warburton's, made out of a wing turned the wrong way) mixture. Vol. 3. P. II.

"a virtue of a good ming." (or wing.) MOTIVE," affiftant." Vol. 3. P. 89.. " inftrument." Vol. 4. P. 9. " pledge." Vol. 6. P. 403. MUCH," marry come up." Vol. 4. P. 243. MUCH-BEDIGHT, “much bedeck'd and a"dorned, as the meadows are in fpring time." Vol. 2. P. 286. See Can. P. 17.

Which being his own word, he pays it this complement; "the epithet is proper, and the com"pound not inelegant.'

MUSTER TRUE GATE, i. e. "affemble to"gether in the high road of the fashion." Vol. 3. P. 29.

I wish, Mr. Warburton had given us some authority for this, out of Skelton at left, if not from Shakespear; for it is too much to take upon his bare word.

NATIVE," civil." Vol. 4. P. 387.

❝ and out-run native punishment." The fenfe of the paffage is, that war overtakes and punishes abroad fuch men as have fled from the juftice of the law, and escaped punishment at home, which Shakespear calls native punishment. NATURE," human." Vol. 6. P. 349. NICE," delicate, courtly, flowing in peace." Vol. 7. P. 178.

NOBILITY," magnitude." Vol. 8. P. 127. "And from no lefs nobility of love."

'

OATS, a distemper in horses.' Vol. 2. P. 442. "the oats have eat the horses."

I hope, Mr. Warburton takes care to keep his horfes from this dangerous distemper.

PEACE to keep, "to go between fimply." Vol. 6. P. 349. See Can. XX. Ex. 18. P. 124. PIKED or PICKED, " formally bearded." POPE. Vol. 3. P. 396.

'PLOY'D," for imploy'd." Vol. 7. P. 328."-have both their eyes

"And ears fo 'ploy'd importantly as now." This is Mr. Warburton's word ('ploy'd for imploy'd, he fhould have faid employ'd) inftead of cloyed, But Shakespear never thought of circumcifing his words at this rate, as our Critic does to fit them for any place which he wants them to fill. By the fame rule we may fay, 'PTY and 'PIRE are English words, fignifying empty and empire. POSSESSION, "fatisfaction." Pope, Vol. 4. P. 328.

"King Lewis's possession.".

A man must be very unreasonable, who will not be fatisfied with poffeffion.

POWER," execution of a sentence." Vol. 6. P.

10.

"To come betwixt our fentence and our power.". Rather, power to execute the sentence.

cr

PREGNANT, " ready." Vol. 3. P. 164.

"most pregnant and vouchsafed ear.”

Ready, for what?

PRE

PRESUPPOSED. " imposed." Vol. 3. P. 204. "forms which there were presupposed "Upon thee in the letter."

i. e. forms beforehand described in the letter, fuch as yellow ftockings, crofs-garters &c. 'PRIS'D," taught." Vol. 2. P. 155. and am well 'pris'd' "To with it back again".

See Can. P. 38.

This is a word which Mr. Warburton has fubftituted instead of pleas'd, which is Shakespear's. Pfuppofe, by the apoftrophe, he uses it for apprifed; and fo, for the ease of all future Poets and Critics, they may use 'ply, 'pear, "proach, for apply, appear, approach, &c.

QUESTION, “force, virtue," Vol, 7. P. 440. During all question of the gentle truce." RACK," the veftige of an embodied cloud," Vol. 1. P. 68.

"Leave not a rack behind." See Can. XV and XVI.

RESPECT, "requital." Vol. 5.

P. 320. "Is the determin'd respect of my wrongs. Mr. Warburton put-in this word; and therefore,

perhaps, he may interpret it as he pleases. -alfo, "One in honorable employment." Vol. 6. P. 56.

"To do upon respect fuch violent outrage." Rather, the reverence due to one in honorable employment.

To RETORT, " to pay again." Vol. 1. P. 280. Hence, no doubt, comes a RETORT, a veffel ufed by the Chemift; because it repays the Operator whatever he puts into it with Intereft; Chemistry being well known to be a very gainful employment.

To RETURN, "to reply averfely." Vol. 7. P. 384.

By replying averfely to adverfe fortune, Mr. Warburton, I fuppofe, means; to reply with his back turned upon her. But the word here seems only to mean Echos.

"And, with an accent tun'd in self-same key, "Returns to adverfe fortune"

To REVYE a man, " to look him in the face." Item, "to call upon him to haften." Vol. 3:

P. 90.

"And time rèvyes us." A word of Mr. Warburton's bringing into the text.

RIVALS, "partners." Vol. 8. P. 116. "The rivals of our watch"

But rivals generally would have all. SEASON," infufe." Vol. 8. P. 137. 7 SELF-CHARITY, " charity inherent in the per"fon's nature." Vol. 8. P. 323.

"Unless felf-charity be fometimes a vice; "And to defend ourselves it be a fin.”

So felf-defenfe and felf-murder, I fuppofe, are defenfe and murder inherent in a perfon's nature.
