ition: 'you do, my son, look in a moved sort.' This line however can scarcely have come from Shakespeare's pen. Perhaps the writer who composed the Masque was allowed to join it, as best he might, to Shakespeare's words, which re-commence at 'Our revels now are ended,' &c. NOTE XVII. IV. 1. 230. _Let's alone._ See Staunton's "Shakespeare," Vol. I. p. 81, note (b). NOTE XVIII. V. 1. 309. _Of these our dear-beloved solemnized._ The Folios have 'belov'd'; a mode of spelling, which in this case is convenient as indicating the probable rhythm of the verse. We have written 'beloved,' in accordance with the general rule mentioned in the Preface. 'Solemnized' occurs in four other verse passages of Shakespeare. It is three times to be accented 'SOlemnized' and once (_Love's Labour's Lost_, II. 1. 41) 'soLEMnized.' * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Sources: The editors' Preface (e-text 23041) discusses the 17th- and 18th-century editions in detail; the newer (19th-century) editions are simply listed by name. The following editions may appear in the Notes. All inset text is quoted from the Preface. Folios: F1 1623; F2 (no date given); F3 1663; F4 1685. "The five plays contained in this volume occur in the first Folio in the same order, and ... were there printed for the first time." Early editions: Rowe 1709 Pope 1715 "Pope was the first to indicate the _place_ of each new scene; as, for instance, _Tempest_, I. 1. 'On a ship at sea.' He also subdivided the scenes as given by the Folios and Rowe, making a fresh scene whenever a new character entered--an arrangement followed by Hanmer, Warburton, and Johnson. For convenience of reference to these editions, we have always recorded the commencement of Pope's scenes." Theobald 1733 Hanmer ("Oxford edition") 1744 Warburton 1747 Johnson 1765 Capell 1768; _also Capell's annotated copy of F2_ Steevens 1773 Malone 1790 Reed 1803 Later editions: Singer, Knight, Cornwall, Collier, Phelps, Halliwell, Dyce, Staunton Dryden: "_The Tempest_ was altered by Dryden and D'Avenant, and published as _The Tempest; or the Enchanted Island_, in 1669. We mark the emendations derived from it: 'Dryden's version.'" Errors and inconsistencies: _Re-enter Boatswain._ [printed BOATSWAIN in small
